Disco tray back

Just a few pics of a Disco tray back we are putting together.

Panels are GRP with an inner layer of woven carbon / kevlar for strength and to reduce the risk of penetration if (when!) it gets rolled.

There are welded in steel pieces internally to restore the integrity of the bodyshell.

On 35" ET2's and a 2" lift it is about 5.5" lower than a standard Disco. And a fair bit lighter!

Sorry about the poor quality pics.

PS the diagonals are just tacked in to brace the body during the build.

It should be a nice truck. The roof makes a lot of difference to the appearance (much like those from Les Richmond here).

Here is a pic of a nice disco trayback that I found somewhere I can't remember.
