My Bobbed Deuce is almost done

[shannondeese]

What did you replace the light switch with. It looks like it's all push button. Thanks for making me drool and drive my wife nuts with all my new ideas I want to do.

the new one is easy to see what is on at night as it glows and a small red led in the button indicates when its on and blue on what is not in use and I hated all the little levers

driving your wife nuts lol my wife passed that stage long ago or was that me

 

[shannondeese]

She doesn't mind all the trucks, ATVs, Dirt Bikes, or Guns. But when I try to explain to her how they all tie in together she just gives me the look, Like I have a third eyeball in the center of my forhead. Where did you find that panel? I'd like to replace my stock lever operated one with that style. Thanks

lol I know what you mean
I told my wife I bought a Hummer H1 today and she rolled her eyes and told me they are ugly and that she will never ride in it.
she wont even go for a ride in the bobbed Deuce

robr, that is a neat mod, just wanted to ask you: from where did you get the door locks, make, part # and cost if you know.

Keep it up, great truck.

Thanks.

Rob,
Most of the locking handles I've seen are VERY cheaply made garage door handles. How do you like these ones?

Is the battery charger waterproof? Reason I ask is the battery compartment on my truck gets mud and rain in it.

This truck just keeps getting better and better each time I see it! Look forward to see whats next.

yeah I know what you mean I bought 5 different kinds before I found these
they are well built

yep its marine grade completely sealed

Have you thought about riviting (or something similar) the door handles on so someone can't just unscrew the handle?

when its locked the handle will not move you would have a hard time getting to the bottom screw.
it would be easier to smash a window
but I do have some one way screws I am going to install

but to be truthful nothing is going to stop someone that really wants in.
my 1st Hummer had a alarm & onstar and they still broke in they did not get the truck as onstar disabled it but they did get the gps stereo

pyro
steering wheel

rocket engines
disco ball
fuzzy dice
