Don't do anything to it, just drop it on a frame and run it as is.

It looks even better now. The oven cleaner is still working on it I guess. The scaling looks cool in person.




I am gonna sand it down and TRY to repaint though.


This was the green landy body I had. The EZ off changed the color to this. It looks awesome, but keeps falling off showing the factory gray. If I could make it stay this way I would.:-(

It will be very similar to what you saw before.

You still want the g-wagon, right? If you do we will both have to stay away from the heavy chevy

when I was pulling this body home I wasnt happy with my old trailers performance, so I started on a new one today. Still needs paint, fenders, lights, jack, ramps, and toolbox, but I ran outta materials.:-(


It has a lil bit of suspension and looks alot better in person(cell phone pics).
