Ok, since the Christmas buzz is over I can get started on this thing.

Don't mind the crappy pics Ill have my photo box back soon and take some shots that do this thing justice

Got the roller built



Received a few items from Corey at rpp today
Dinky interior, went with the bench seat, dinky camper shell, rc4wd fender wells and radiator support, and reign whip antenna.


Also did a little horse trading with Axialjeepster and pic up some 1.9 steelies and rok lox
Along with a 35t HH motor and 3rd winch, thanks man!



More to come very soon I can't wait to get this thing finished!

Well I f'd up when I ordered the interior and didn't realize the classic version didn't have door panels so ill have to make some and the dinky topper was a little bit of a let down. So, I'm bobbing the bed and making my own bobbed shell

Good to know about the topper before I dropped that much into it. I got my interior kit and feners/core off of Ebay pretty cheap and luckily I double checked to see if it had door panels. It's gonna look sick with a bobbed bed/topper

Getting the basic shape down. Will be adding a little of a slant back to the shell. I like where the fronts at now I just need to do a little trimming on the backside and ad some pieces to fill out the back and knock this one out
