Default My New Mini Dump

It seems like everybody either has a dump trailer or dump truck these days, I didnt want to be left out. Travis talked about dismantling this if he didnt sell it. I saw this truck running at Indy and laughed my butt off. So I had to save it and give it a new home. Gonna do some changes to it, so stand by.

I really hope by "changes" you don't mean making it even shorter!

Glad to see it has a new home. Would have been a shame to see it get dismantled. New paint on the bed and a new cab should really finish it.

Got it pinstriped in gold. Added some super single fronts and knobby rear tires and an aluminum bumper. Thinking about making a dump bed out of aluminum.[IMG][/IMG] [IMG][/IMG]
