Mr. Bastard 05-13-2002, 11:33 AM My buddy Torc wanted me to do a lil photochop on his rig....I suck at PSP so here is my version....here is a link to the original...lets hack it up! SCOUT (http://www.mo-4xtoys.com/torc/tetanus/) :flipoff2: Hooper 05-13-2002, 12:11 PM What is it supposed to be? A tube chassis with a cab? Justin Messer 05-13-2002, 12:12 PM Yup its a Scout, I can see the large puff of smoke from the exhaust.:D I'm beginning to understand "that jeep thing":rainbow: Mechanos 05-13-2002, 12:29 PM Originally posted by Hooper What is it supposed to be? A tube chassis with a cab? We were playing around with idea of bobbing the body back to the center of the wheel well, shortening the top to match and putting some kind of flatbed on the back. oh, and chop the frame rails off right behind the shackles... Mr. Bastard 05-13-2002, 12:31 PM Originally posted by Hooper What is it supposed to be? A tube chassis with a cab? Well as most of you Scout guys can attest to the rearend of this thing is completley rusted away...not much holding it together. Torc was contemplating "bobbing" the cancer out of it and making some kind of tub/flatbed rear. He wants to retain the stock top...just chop it down... He is a fraid of a sawzall :D so I thought I could "help" him visualize with a lil photo chop.. :flipoff2: the rest of it is an "exo" that I was playing around with to tie it all in with...... Torc is giving away a case of :beer: to the first one with the winning photochop :D j/k Bones 05-13-2002, 12:39 PM I'd say go for it if the gas tank and any other issues are easily solved. Hell, you gotta chop it up anyway since it's wasted, might as well put it on a diet at the same time :D Mr. Bastard 05-13-2002, 12:47 PM Originally posted by TORC We were playing around with idea of bobbing the body back to the center of the wheel well, shortening the top to match and putting some kind of flatbed on the back. oh, and chop the frame rails off right behind the shackles... We wanna see your photochop :D :rasta: jdjanda 05-13-2002, 12:47 PM Oh man, what's the world coming to? Toy guys invading the Binder section, I'm even considering a 4-Runner for a DD. Say it is not so. Mechanos 05-13-2002, 12:48 PM You guys see what I have to put up with......:rolleyes: :shaking: Mr. Bastard 05-13-2002, 12:59 PM Originally posted by jdjanda Oh man, what's the world coming to? Toy guys invading the Binder section, I'm even considering a 4-Runner for a DD. Say it is not so. Yeah baby! And we are taking this mutha over! :D Ooops...wrong forum... :flipoff2: :D :flipoff2: Hooper 05-13-2002, 01:55 PM Where is the original side view? Bones 05-13-2002, 02:12 PM Originally posted by Hooper Where is the original side view? :beer: Mechanos 05-13-2002, 02:19 PM Originally posted by Hooper Where is the original side view? Here they are..... http://home.kc.rr.com/torc/scout/P0000087.jpg http://home.kc.rr.com/torc/scout/Image1.jpg chop chop :D daleviathan 05-13-2002, 04:10 PM not sure of your budget.... Mr. Bastard 05-13-2002, 04:49 PM Originally posted by daleviathan not sure of your budget.... Hmmm... I like it :D Keep em coming! :flipoff2: That Mick 05-13-2002, 06:42 PM Um, why not put on a Cabtop/Terra top, bolt in the bulkhead, and start whacking the body @ the bulkhead??? Use a little plate to seal off the gap between the quarters and the bedsides (a' la' Hayraker.) Mechanos 05-13-2002, 09:34 PM Originally posted by daleviathan not sure of your budget.... That looks pretty cool... :beer: :beer: but the reason I was wanting to keep the top was so I could roll up the windows and turn the heat on for cold weather wheelin'.......:rasta: Hooper 05-15-2002, 04:52 PM OK. I chopped it a little. What do you think? From Family Wagon http://www.nwbinders.net/MiscImages/Torc.jpg To a pirate board rockcrawling machine http://www.nwbinders.net/MiscImages/Hack.JPG Mechanos 05-15-2002, 06:03 PM well, as usual Hoop, you are a chopping maniac.... Looks sweet. :beer: :beer: The only concerns I would have to address would be where to put tools, spare parts and gear. Hmmmm Hooper 05-15-2002, 06:19 PM Originally posted by TORC well, as usual Hoop, you are a chopping maniac.... Looks sweet. :beer: :beer: The only concerns I would have to address would be where to put tools, spare parts and gear. Hmmmm Between the wheel wells in the bed, under the spare. Chad H 05-15-2002, 07:42 PM I'm surprised ya didn't paint it Pink there Hoop :flipoff2: Bones 05-15-2002, 07:55 PM Originally posted by TORC well, as usual Hoop, you are a chopping maniac.... Looks sweet. :beer: :beer: The only concerns I would have to address would be where to put tools, spare parts and gear. Hmmmm Maybe instead of mounting the spare baja style, mount it by the back of the cab so the flatbed is accesable to the stuff you get to more often? Like :beer: I like that photochop, but it makes it into to much of a truck IMO. get the sazall warmed up, we can chop up both rigs....:D Hooper 05-15-2002, 11:24 PM Originally posted by DaChad I'm surprised ya didn't paint it Pink there Hoop :flipoff2: Ran out of pink spray paint. I'll pick some up tomorrow and finish up. ;) Mr. Bastard 05-16-2002, 08:11 AM Originally posted by Bones Maybe instead of mounting the spare baja style, mount it by the back of the cab so the flatbed is accesable to the stuff you get to more often? Like :beer: I like that photochop, but it makes it into to much of a truck IMO. get the sazall warmed up, we can chop up both rigs....:D Exactly what I was thinking...ther is ample room there to store gear and parts etc.... TORC? :flipoff2: Hooper 05-16-2002, 10:38 AM Originally posted by FlatBastard Exactly what I was thinking...ther is ample room there to store gear and parts etc.... TORC? :flipoff2: You didn't see the hinge and bar? The tire pivots up, like a car hood, and has a bar that props it up, so you can get to stuff underneath easily. ;) Scout Dude 05-16-2002, 10:42 AM Hooper..as always, your Photo Chop skillz are awesome... Could we see that with some MRT beadlocks now?:flipoff2: Hooper 05-16-2002, 03:29 PM Originally posted by Scout Dude Hooper..as always, your Photo Chop skillz are awesome... Could we see that with some MRT beadlocks now?:flipoff2: Well, can't say that they are MTR beadlocks, but this is how it looks with beadlocks. That Mick 05-16-2002, 04:47 PM Pic like this make me wonder: Does the Hooper truck really exist, or is it just a conspiricy between Hoop and his mouse??? :flipoff2: :flipoff2: Mechanos 05-16-2002, 11:15 PM Dayum!!!!! Hooper, you definately know your way around Photoshop. Can you put a slight slant on the back of the cab.... like a Terra top has? Mr. Bastard 05-17-2002, 07:39 AM Originally posted by TORC Dayum!!!!! Hooper, you definately know your way around Photoshop. Can you put a slight slant on the back of the cab.... like a Terra top has? Fawk Torc... :rolleyes: Want me to come over and chop it for ya to :question: :D :flipoff2: :D Hooper 05-17-2002, 09:45 AM Originally posted by TORC Dayum!!!!! Hooper, you definately know your way around Photoshop. Can you put a slight slant on the back of the cab.... like a Terra top has? Got a pic? Scout Dude 05-17-2002, 09:47 AM Originally posted by Hooper Well, can't say that they are MTR beadlocks, but this is how it looks with beadlocks. Nice pic...and you even used MRT's (Easy to tell..they use 36 bolts) Hooper 05-17-2002, 09:51 AM Originally posted by The Mick Pic like this make me wonder: Does the Hooper truck really exist, or is it just a conspiricy between Hoop and his mouse??? :flipoff2: :flipoff2: My mouse will never tell...... Hooper 05-17-2002, 09:53 AM Originally posted by Scout Dude Nice pic...and you even used MRT's (Easy to tell..they use 36 bolts) Ahh, 36 bolts. I didn't stop to count. Just got lucky I guess. Still learning the photochop stuff. But, getting a little better I guess. Reminds me, I should go chop something for Friday Chit Chat.... Mechanos 05-17-2002, 11:08 AM Originally posted by FlatBastard Fawk Torc... :rolleyes: Want me to come over and chop it for ya to :question: :D :flipoff2: :D NO!... it would end up looking like a Toyota or something:eek: :flipoff2: Mr. Bastard 05-17-2002, 11:36 AM Originally posted by TORC NO!... it would end up looking like a Toyota or something:eek: :flipoff2: Hell, it wouldnt hurt :flipoff2: :D Are u gonna hack it or not? :confused: Mechanos 05-17-2002, 11:52 AM Originally posted by Hooper Got a pic? Bummer... nope. I don't have good side pics of a Terra top. Hooper 05-17-2002, 12:34 PM http://atlas.binderbulletin.org/photopost/data/44776terra1.jpg Problem with the slant is that it takes up just that much more room in the bed, and makes the rollbar sit farther back from the top and wall. Tydes 05-18-2002, 05:38 PM http://tydes.freehosting.net/images/scout.jpg If that doesnt work click on the link http://tydes.freehosting.net/photo.html Mechanos 05-18-2002, 11:29 PM :barf: I hate exo's.... I like the length of the chop but that is not possible without going to coils, coilovers or 1/4 eliptical. You hacked off the rear spring mounts:flipoff2: Tydes 05-19-2002, 12:41 AM sorry i was thinking 1/4 eliptical. My bad tsm1mt 05-21-2002, 09:49 AM TORC - the only rotten section *I* see on your Scout are those rockers.. the rear quarters look to be in GREAT shape, relatively speaking. :D Why not just start with an IH Pickup cab and flatbed? Let's see some more fullsize 'Binders out there. :D Mechanos 05-21-2002, 10:57 AM Must be hard to see in the pics :D but the corners in front of the wheels on both quarter panels are gone.... some holes around wheel openings (but that will probably get trimmed away anyhow) and the bottom portion behind drivers side wheel and bottom of endcap are gone. The passenger quarter is in great shape. probably the panel with the least rust on the whole truck..... of course, it's the one bashed to hell.:rolleyes: Passenger side kinda looks like I let Joe drive it up to HH:flipoff2: | |
