My "Little" Jeep

[tco3129]

I Know,
So I got a few with my cellphone. The quality may not be so great and some were taken at dusk.This is my 77? Kaiser. I used the 53 Frue M105 frame and suspension. In one pic you can see the bed in the back of my Deuce. I plan to do some painting before I mount the bed. Any comments? ( Have fairly tough skin so fire away )
BTW That's my baby and copilot in life in the Cherokee.

Also plan to flip the hubs and single out. I like the price and availability of the 9x20 ND tires so I'll be sticking with them. Chains are only a small inconvenience to me in winter.

Finally got some decent photos.

Fine job!

Very Nice!

What paint did you use?

 

[duffman1993]

Normally I'm not one for a bobber, but you did a really good job with that. I would own something like that. Maybe beef up the rear suspension and use it as a toy hauler......hauler!!!

Oh by the way, MORE PICS!!!!!!

More detailed pics coming soon. drove it to visit my son in TN. 800 miles roundtrip. Mostly in the rain and at night. Mostly no Interstates. Cheap electric defrosters died 1/2 way home. Used a squeegee. Got checked by Police in Abington Va while taking a break in a vacant lot (3am). 2 cruisers, 3 cops and a K9. They were more interested in the truck than me. GOT to get the drivers seat pad redone. My butt ain't 18 no more.Took my own fuel mix in 3 drums under the tarp. Long, tireing, but actually enjoyable trip. Would do it again. Love the truck.

I my eyes, the only thing it's missing is a winch up front. But hey, you may already have that in the cards!!

That's one of the nicest trailer-spring bobbers I've seen. How did you attach the subframe?

 

[tco3129]

Drilled and bolted with grade 8's and locknuts.(Pain in tush) Not fond of welding on frames.(that's just me)
When I install my trailer hitch I will vertical plate the the frames together. Didn't have time before the Veterans Day Parade. Mudflaps fore and aft the rear axle are also in the works.

I like the cargo cover! Looks real good. Like a super-sized M37!
