Looks awesome! great approach and departure angle

What wheelbase?

What colour are you going to paint it? (I think lime green would look awesome for some reason...)

the wheelbase is 107 inches, and yeah approach and departure angles are pretty wicked!! it will be going oldschool landcrover green and silver barwork!

Cheers
Jake

It's already painted, and looks the goods as is .

awesome Jake

you have done a top job on that will be looking fwd to wheeling with it soon
looking at atlas tc where did you get yours,would like to look at your front A frame as its our plan to do the same in my truck and grover's rangie

wil be watching out for the green at TTC

It has turned out good, just looks like you have all the fun small things left to do & glad it didn't turn out bad with the test run, could have been a nightmare so close to TTC.
Best of luck if I don't make it down.

Hi mate this is one cool truck been whatchin your build & sams ,i think its the only reason im goin to Tuff Truck
It rocks c u there

thanks for the support mate, come and say hi at the show and shine

i think painting it will be a huge mistake. As it is it looks really cool. It is a pity the doors are not the same old faded paint as the rest of the body though. Just paint the welds with some primer and leave it as is. Sort of like a rat rod crawler. Having said that it is your car so do whatever you want with it. Car looks great and good luck at TT

I agree with the others on leaving the paint as is... that thing looks awesome as is, like it's already been through three or four wars and survived.

100% awesome truck ,best of luck a ttc i will be rooting for team xtc.i think a flat green paint job would look good with silver hammer-tone on the bar work

Can't wait to see it in action at Tuff Truck see you down there for some

yeah will be good to catch up for a few damo!!
thanks for the support everyone!

Less than a week to GO!!!

heres a few pics of it lately
