I thought my eyes were deceiving me when I read the headding I didnt remember starting a new thread or highjacking a thread ...I wasnt planning on starting one since its more a over built "OVERKILL"project than your typical homebrew basher I see posted on this site .... but thanks Jeep Last edited by SuperSancho; 06-29-2005 at 03:43 AM. |

Looks great!! I have some doubt about the body tho, I'd prefer some panels and that's all. The frame is too cool to be hidden ;) |

No negative feedback i just don't think the people here that create nice trucks would like your saying "mine is a highend rig so i didn't post it among the homebrew bashers on this site" The truck is nice except i can't beleive you cut up that body :?

Ive always built full shelf queens but am getting tired of just looking at them. I already built my Hilux basher and am in the process of powdercoating this chassis originally i planned on a chrome frame, aluminum rims,gearboxes,trans and anodized hardware...But after being here for awhile, IM seeing things in a different prospective The shocks will get deanodized,frame will get powdercoated.I chucked the ally rims in favor of plastic stockers and IM waiting on a pair of non chrome axles and Lathe motor eventualy,there will be no chrome |

Well i've always thought less is more. Anything more then chrome rims is too much if you ask me. I consider stock bruiser rims bling lol And don't even get me started on 40's rims. This site certainly does change your perspective on things. I'm going to have to build a competition rig too sometime soon when i get more money. The bruiser are so dang expensive. I've got 500 in mine already. I'm thinking of selling it when i'm done just because i can't justify haveing spent so much money on a little truck.

Nice looking "truck", I have never seen a "moon buggy" with a cab before.  You might want to look at Hulks rig, that's a moon buggy.  I also would like to know where you got that tranny. Is it a one off custom??
