Appel's bobbed deuce/almost done

[jcappeljr]

Here is sone more pics of the duece. Got the bed on today. All I need now is the wheels that are on back order.....guess I will prep it for paint while waiting. Not quite sure whether I did the right thing by putting the trailer frame under the bed......itI looks a little high. Some guys such as C+C Equipment did not use a subframe. Not real sure what the difference would be.

Wheels finally came in yesterday, mounted tires on the wheels and flipped the hubs, and mounted them on the truck. They look awesome.....got done late and did'nt even get time to test drive. Painting next project.

So did you basically cut the tongue off of the trailer, remove the axles/wiring, and mount it on the deuce?

It will look great with the bigger tires! What color scheme are you going with? Green, tan or camo?

I had the pleasure to see John's bobbed duece to a drive by of my house on saturday. One nice looking truck, sounds good too. He did have my neighbors talking between mine in the driveway and him doing a driveby they were wondering if the war over the mason dixon line started up.

I think that just about every bobbed duece project Ive seen on here has some sort of civiy monster truck in the background. Great minds think alike.

I like the Bobed configuration with the standard 900x20's with the duals out back. Although the 'BIG' tire'd versions are surely 'too cool' as well, my preferance is a shortened Deuce bed and duals.
