Basically woke this truck up from the dead, she's had a lot of issue's, she's in 'rehab'..... Thanks for the storage compliment.

 

It worked out great, I'll dig up a photo or two..


Meanwhile......Best use I've found for a Hi-Lift thus far.......Log Splitter!

 

Solved my tank transport issue, had some multi position tie down samples from a company years ago.....finally found a use!





Secured them right to the steel seat frame, the securing rings are detachable, pretty much lost zero space!





So.....another win! Used it today, feel a lot safer.....heal, the tank is still in the truck! These are available thru most trailer companies, Jeg's, most anywhere.

 

For Army.....


My previous long term toy that got way out of control, but it was fun....mostly quarter panel pocket photo's.....only one of it's kind on this brand vehicle.....


Quarter panel guard, steel tube fender flares, pocket....









3.5" deep, room to spare, it was pretty cool......it was set for production but the quarter panel needed to be formed to a contour prior to laser cutting which presented an issue in my current location......parts and quantities would have needed to be shipped in which made it a non-profit.





Had a CRAP LOAD of fun with developing and creating this rig, sold it in June to an old friend in Maine.....

 

pretty nice work

 

Definitely like your style so far, if you are not gonna make them measurements on the basket and door pocket would probly help guys make em

 

I'll do a paper napkin sketch on the rear basket and post, a stranger actually asked me about that today.......Ford owner.

 

Dude it a good idea, outside the box and utility

 

Also secures a 6 pack, nicely!

 

Well, ol'man Winter showed up and she's got toooo much road crud in her britches to be allowed in the shop......don't need that drip in the shop, so she'll need to stick it out for a few days....





Meanwhile, our local Amish DOT is out in full force clearing the snow off the street! When I say this place is like the wild west.....ain't kidding!





Cold and snowy day in Kentucky, shops nice and warm, jamming to some Wildside again.......too bad grunge killed this band, check 'um out!
