That is a beautiful truck and an amazing amount of work has been done to it. Just like the Land Rover that Jonas posted. If I had the money, I would buy both of them in a heartbeat. But I don't. My WDX is getting a nice paint job on the cab. I have gone through the winch and painted it, the interior will get painted, seat cover and headliner, new weatherstrip in the doors and windows, and I will re-wire it. I am going to build a flatbed, simply because I can't justify buying Matt's fenders and bedsides, although 3 years ago, in a far better builder's market, I wouldn't have hesitated to drop the money for a repro bed. Maybe the economy will turn around and I will do it again, to the same extent as the $69k truck.
"that's what you get from the 'experts' who usually get in their escort after insulting your efforts." That comment was priceless. Good one. Ha Ha JH
