Here is my friends 198- Truck. One of those, restored/rebuilt franken trucks.
He has since these pictures blacked out most of the chrome and put lights all over it.
and probably the coolest pic in the world :

Clean looking truck Yotapowa's friend. Trick paint. I'd hate to take it down a jeep trail and use it for what it's good for.

1983 Jeep Recovery Vehicle. Yes, that is a Bronco badge on the fender. A little something from my last 4X4, may it rest in peace.

My B&G fiberglass bed has held up really well, now I got their "economy" series and had them beef it up with some steel plates at the tie down locations only... I cant say that I would haul my Triumph 955 sport tourer in it, I ended up getting a small trailer for it, I loaded it on the fiberglass bed and when I tied it down it was creaking and making strange sounds so instead of taking the chance of A: losing my bike or B: breaking my bed I chose to get a trailer!!! It looks great, fits great and has hauled a lot of home depot type stuff like 1000 lbs of top soil in bags, thing like that with no problems. B&G will ship them to you too, they were great to work with and for $1200 I couldn't go wrong!!!

Thanks, good endorsement. I have talked to them to see if they could tell me of a customer close to me so i could see one. No luck, anyway I may go with them

1983 Shortbed SR5
Here are a few pic from my old set up. This winter my Yota went through some major suspension change by getting rid of the leaf springs and adding 4 link suspension with Fox shock on the front and rear.
ahhhh rust free
