Very Grimace.

Who would want a cheep body on there zook. Thou that company in NZ does fibre zook shells.

The person i bought my ARB bar off had a jeep copy on a sierra WT chassis. very crap looking and questionable build quality.

A galvanised body would be less prone to rust than the zook one. I would think it would also be a good bass for a rock hopper rig. I also like the look. But maybe thats just me. :D :cool:

thats good idea ... galvanised body :twisted: then just run it with out paint and just give it a nice polish .. very bling .. but it wouldn't last long

but ... do we want to turn our zooks into more of a wanna be jeep?

i get Sh@T from my brother as it is about his tj is better than my zook .. well it is but not for long :twisted:

You should get better clearance with the front guards. Was just thinking a MASH replica on 33's would look hot. But with out all the weak jeep drive train. :armsup:

That should up set someone. :bad-words:

Very good quality, but prices do reflect that..........
The business is for sale too by the look of it.

a jeep body would be easy to replicate (to a certain degree), almost every panel is flat. just buy a bonnet and grill and some sheet metal. have seen a cortina body on a zuk. he had room for two tanks as the cortinas is under the boot. seated 4 ppl. looked stupid though. points for trying. :P
