Re: Project MAN!!
Hi Chris,
Thanks for the pic's, gives me an idea what I'm looking at for a BB, didn't think of making the whole front panel into one, I was gonna cut the bottom part off and go from there, this helps a lot. Thanks again, Paul

Re: Project MAN!!
I have spent all day on this and, Unfortunately, it seems that I don't have the tools, Know-how or the skills to complete the project, So, It will stay as a "City Truck" as Tim calls it....Lol!!

Re: Project MAN!!
I like where this is going Paul, especially with all of the aussie touches you are giving it like the front bumper/brushguard. Are you going to replicate the square fuel tanks as well?
