About that truck from www.rockstomper.com

Did anyone see it when they had the flex picture up there. Had the right front tire on a HUGE rock. The pic was amazing and I cant find it in his pics anymore. No one happened to save it did they?

IMO, Scott's (rockstompers) rig is the best looking front tube design I've seen. I'm gonna steal it when I build mine. The only thing I don't like about it is the little round headlights. Simple and cheap I know, but mine's gonna have the euro ones like that orange one from Oklahoma that looks just plain evil!

I'm not sure if these are the pics you are looking for.. But one is the red rig, and the other is a green truck on a HUGE rock...

Those are the same truck...

I love that truck, but I honestly dont like the frontend. I guess I have never seen a full tube front end that I really loved. I like some tube buggy fronts but that is kinda a whole noterh deal...

That's exactly where I am heading with my 76! One question... Why bother with a hood and fenders at all? I see everyone narrowing stuff, but why?

yurtle I thought you were using a Zuk body?

Thanks everyone for the responses. Just got back from the beach, been looking forward to seeing what came in.

And yes, I was originally thinking Zuk body for a few semi-valid reasons. Wanted a removable windshield frame, more upright seating (can't squeeze in a Toy very well) and a flat body panels behind the doors for easier fabbing of rear quarter panels.

After getting this taken down and comparing dimensions, I am thinking it might work after all if I commit further and take the top off, along with a tilt steering wheel. Still on the fence about it.

One wise soul brought up the question of ruining a perfectly good zuk, and that is a good point.


Thanks again

Brian
