Great job in a short time!
I love seeing the youngling partaking with such enthusiasm, makes me miss mine being young.

I really like that green tarp interior covering on the doors, very clever! I'll keep that trick in mind for the future.

Cheers

The reason the truck is desert tan is my son asked me to paint it that way, so I did.

Yesterday, out of the blue, my son says "I think the truck would be better black." So today happened...

Yes best color .
You still need to mount a Vss-3 up top.
Plugs right into the slave cable port under front passenger seat/ commanders seat.
Just saying!!!
150 million candle power. IR or visible light. Adjustable beam width.
Some guys go with the red Italian sports cars when they hit the mid life crisis.
Other try to find a double breasted mattress thrasher.
Then there are the few,the proud , that go big or go home . They got the sickness for the recently retired MV.
The Eyecon was so yesterday.
I'm sorry but that light bar needs help.
Vss-3. !!!
