Repainted the inerior to grey, and it looks much better.







And that is pritty much the way it stayed for the next 2 years, untill boardom took over, along with a little bit of tinkeridus.







It was at this piont I relized, I should have done something with the frame rails instead of leaving them in raw aluminum.

So, I discided it was time to do it right. And tore it all back down again, and rebuild it from the ground up.

The new electronics system that would replace the cheap wedico electrical system.



And reduced the rest of the truck to rubble.



Took the time this go around to send the chasis off to powder coat. Also had them do the 4:1 t-case while they where at it.





And the rebuild complete.



The new elictrical system that is in it now is PMD's new system, witch I like much better, as I can turn the lights on and off through the radio system. I also removed the wedico sound unite, and installed servonauts SMX sound unite. Over all I think this has turned out better than I thought it would. and now look forward to finishing off my volvo F12, and the Centry class witch I should be getting back from the painter soon.
