I want to see more pics too. Don't worry about crowding up the board, thats what we are here for ;D . Windshield frame / door frames look shorter too. Very nice job. :)

I have the large 24 gallon tank with the filler behind the hinged drivers side tailight. Works great. That was one of my 'must-haves' when I started this project...and one of the hardest things to get right; other than the A/C-Heater.

Also...I built the Roll-Bar so that it is in line with the door post...I kinda wanted it to not be so noticable...guess it worked!!

Thanks all for the compliments...I've been holed up in the garage for the past year so it's nice to hear such things after all that effort. All the cursing and flying tools seem worthwhile now!

Next goal is to get into 'Bronco Driver'. That would top it all off!!

Again thanks...and if you have any questions, feel free to ask!

I didn't take any pictures of the wiper conversion, but if somebody is willing to supply the wipers out of a Landcruiser I'd be willing to do it again...it is not easy!

Very sweet rig. :p Good to see how these things can be built simple and win trophys too. Post some of the details (wipers and gas filler).

Excellent ride;D ;D ;D ;D :p

I do have some before pics but they are too 'big' to put on here. Haven't figured out how to compress them yet!


I'll try to get a clearer picture of the wipers and tank filler for ya.

Those pics brought a tear to my eye:'( It is just beautiful . Very well thought out and engineered . I must however insist that everyone quit calling that a roll bar . I would call it an accent post or light bar ... none the less ... I still love it and hope to see pics of it doing more stuff ;) anything involving sunshine is way better than keeping that stallion in the stable ;D ;D ;D ;D
