I still say it needs a lift or to be slammed...

I remember when all we had were a couple of grainy photos to go on.   :yes:  I guess it's really real for realz.  

 

you'd think they could have cleaned the engine bay and applied some black-renu to the flares. :dunno:  wonder what the reserve is...

With the length of the truck it just says "Slam it!". And, I'm not a fan of slammed trucks. That will never be more than a trailer or street queen, so go for the whole look - 20" wheels with rubber band tires, etc.

I'm jus sayin.....

Few thoughts here;

 

1)it's way way above my ability to design and build, so keep that in mind with any of my comments below

 

2) I wonder why they didn't use late model rear inner door panels

 

3) shape of back door would drive me crazy

 

4) I wonder what they did to the uni-frame to make it all work

 

5) based on this, I'd want mine with a slightly shorter cab, and a short bed (or even a bobbed bed)

 

6) most importaint point,

That's awesome and a work of art by someone with a lot of talent!

[jpnjim]

Two more points,

I wonder what his reserve is?

 

If it's under 10k you could sell the rear bumper and visor for 5k a piece and have a free truck  :fine print:  :rotf:

What is with the wing windows if it started life as a 98 Cherokee?  Inside front door panels match the 98 Cherokee.

Some people like the smoker windows.

 

Personally I don't.  But if you're at the point you've cut two vehicles in half and welded them together, swapping to your preferred window setup is pretty minor in the grand scheme of things.

[Pete M]

yup, the ad has been pulled.  guess I should have gotten more photos.

[FrankTheDog]

It has the smoker vents and pre 97 door catches but has the post 96 door panels.

If it started life as a 2 door they cut the B pillar out of a pre 97 4 door.

 

I always thought it would be cool to take a 2 door B pillar and move it up to a four door front door and make a panel delivery.

It's back ..

[johnj92131]

It is back all right.  And with pictures of the underside of the body! 

 

Noticed only the 18 gallon tank, not 23 gallons.  Did not see where the spare tire is located. But I would guess in the stock under bed location.

 

Wonder what the wheelbase is for this? My guess would be at least 24 inches longer than the short wheel base Comanche - 136-144 inches.

That's not from the guy that did that clean white one that got posted a few years back on here, it is? Can't remember if it had a newer front end on it, but I distinctly remember it being very well fabbed together.
