It`s the rims that don`t go with it, change them out and it will look a whole lot better. Paint scheme is O.K. not something I would choose but I could live with it.

I think the Peyote went to this guys head!

Did it overheat before you added the homemade shroud? If the shroud is too deep into the fan blade it can reduce the effectiveness of the fans ability top draw air through the radiator. I think you want at least 3/4" of fan blade sticking outside of the shroud area. Post some pics of your setup...

$650.00 That`s giving it away!!!!! If I were near there it would be mine!!!! :burnout:

Can`t tell for sure in the pic but that rear bumper looks like it might be chrome, maybe it`s the light hitting it but it sure looks shiny? Could you even get a elastomeric front bumper/chrome rear bumper combo from the factory?

As was the custom in days gone by I believe it was the new guys job on the ship to jack off the whale! LOL!

In this instance a limited slip would be preferred! :munky2::sign10::sign12:

This is my solution! My fabric was starting to leak after 3 winters, so I got a bunch of 4x8 Aluminum sheets cut them down and bent them up into standing seam panels and strapped the tent frame with 1" girt. Cost me ZERO dollars. :blob:Leftover stock from the job site! I plan on wrapping the...
