No pretty trucks

Show me your trail abused truck!


Here is mine as of last summer, before its complete teardown.

Note: it has seen some serious abuse. I have had her about 13 years. I have also given up on the body.

Looks like you're ready for tubing!

Sorry, mine never sees the dirt, because its IFS, so it only looks road abused.

I've always envied you guys. It seems like once you no longer give a crap about the truck, you can just beat it until it dies. Not going to lie, it looks like a lot more fun, and you can really go on hard trails.

Does this count as abused?

There's actually light at the end of this tunnel. Hopefully I'll be able to fire it up next week!

well since you had to tow it back but it was still able to roll on all 4's then i think that classifies lance lol!

Its just the outside that I no longer care about, that is why the drivetrain is going through rehab. I think Good Times wins so far, if he can get it runnin.

Your runner has seen some trail use. I still like the two tone.

I try to make an effort to knock the dents out every month or so but...

Here's mine from a while ago. I got the funniest looks ever while driving it like that.
The ones who got the most pissed off were the metro bodybuilder dudes driving "trail rated" Liberties. :rofl:

WOOHOO!

She is sort of still running. She was running in that last picture, but she is currently in the garage undergoing some changes. I chopped the body off a few weeks ago and have been cleaning all unnecessary parts off the frame. Then I pulled the gas tank (at which point, she obviously can't run) so that I could relocat it between the frame rails in the back of the truck. Then saturday I pulled and sold both diffs. So right now she is half the truck she used to be and on jackstands. :laugh: However, all will be back together in a couple weeks and I will be building a flatbed and cage on it. :)

Don't make it too pretty!

I fear that she will never be accused of being overly pretty. :( :laugh:

We all know as soon as you buff-out that last scratch, something is gonna get %$#^&* up.

I know, I bobbed it, hit it with some body filler, cleaned it all up nice...then went out and flopped it. :chair:

Doh! Your supposed to enjoy your good job for a while.
