Camper Thread!

alright heres the thread people asked for! i also have them posted on page 8 of the pics.

this thing is fast and lites the tires up super easy. does anyone now the horspower numbers of a 3.0?

it has 39436 miles on it.

we're thinkin of painting it with the patina style in mind. I dont kno if anyone gets hot rod mag but there was kurt urbans nova that was a sleeper that had ugly green paint but a twin supercharged engine. The paint would be a forest green with fake rust showing through and sun damage. but the interior would be nice new carpet seats and others. The reason is that were leavin the rest of the truck how it is and want to give it a paint job that matches the rest of the truck.

other plans:

flat bed

and throwing the idea around about no rear window.

i'm open to other paint ideas and questions and comments are awesome

1989 toyota(now primered up)

From the looks of it, the camper is a pile of debris, prime for a bonfire. The question is, what are you goin to do with the back of that bad boy? New camper? flat bed? swimming pool! The possibilities are endless!!!

Hmmmm, lifted 4x conversion, or slammed road turtle remover?
Stacks or weed burner?

That hole in the roof looks like a good spot for a sliding rag top

I've remotely pondered buying one of those 4 wheel campers or all terrain campers. Many those things are schweet looking and nice and light to boot.

I would hate to see your heavy duty dualy suspension go to waste on that truck. I wonder if some kind of custom camper option or something like that might be worthwhile?
