do you know which body i'm chopping up? well i decided to go with a body that no one else has put on a wraith..i'm far from done but just wanted to post up what i got done today..really not alot mostly i just sat and stared..but here it is...CAN ANYONE TELL ME WHAT BODY IT IS? http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/e...0/7775e2b6.jpg i still gotta dove the nose to fit the lines and bob the tail..also need to shorten it about 3/4. oh and im gonna cut half doors..but i'm stuck on what to do with the roof. i thought about cutting the stock rear bed bars and bending them down kinda like on noob's that way it would have that truck look with a semi-drop bed...i think its gonna look sick..oh and the wheels are only for mock up..my monsters and pitbulls will be on the finshed product http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/e...0/a27bb4d9.jpg http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/e...0/ed56301f.jpg http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/e...0/a4b6beab.jpg http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/e...0/1021a661.jpg well thats it for now..i'll get back at it in the morning..thanks for looking and tell me what ya think and i'm open to any ideas or suggestions.."thumbsup" |
looks to be a ford or maybe a dodge. prob a f150, not sure tho! |
Ramcharger body. |
Looking good j-bird!!! |
I know what it is!!! I like it man, I would shorten the bed up, pinch it front and back and leave it alone otherwise...I kinda like the full doors, just cut the window out like its rolled down or somethin! Matt |

im thinking of running these wheels..instead of the monsters and leaving them at home on my eb.. but i also found another set i want the day after i bought these..tell me what ya think http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/e...0/2b07b458.jpg http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/e...0/e6876f9e.jpg |
I dont like those wheels much, but Ide have a hard time takin the Mayhems away from the EB too. As for the lexan body, I DEF hear ya, they make some kool bodies now but the best ones seem to be discontinued and hard to find cheap. Dont fear tho, just keep some ShoeGoo handy and paint the outside to mask any repairs LOL The Ramcharger body is like the Courier, ugly in stock form but AWESOME with some minor cutting and modding. Matt |
i kinda like those wheels:ror: i would like to run my mayhen 7's but they are 1.9's:cry: |
