decided to paint the body up a lil... but now it needs some stickers for the door and bedsides. I think a couple Dorkstar and ORCRC stickers would be just perfect for it;) now i just need to weld a couple more support bars in and paint up the frame and tubing:cool: |

Awesome. I think it's missing something up top. Like a rack and some big ole lights lol. Maybe more tube around the front too.
