ya...but this truck will be driven on the road as well, I will just be able to be a bit more rough with it, as it will not be the everyday driver. I still have the 94 runner, and the intrepid(yuck) for back up.

perfect candidate for a flat bed. i might replace the fenders and doors. a little patch job on the rockers and you'd be set.

You can buy new fenders for 80 bucks a pop. They're well worth it.

I'd flatbed it, find a couple doors at the junker and roll on paint it.

That was my first thought, but i dunno....I kinda like the bed. Where do you get fenders....my local shop can only get whole door shells, and no fenders. I looked on jc whitney, but they dont describe their skins very well.

I used Manks Auto parts.It's a junkyard in Warren. It's a ride for you but you could give them a call and see if they could give you an idea of where to get them.

207-594-8495. Ask for Sean. Leave a message if nobody answers. They'll call you back eventually.

Was just up in rockland a couple weeks ago... it was my better half's b day, and she wanted go go north on the coast...it's beautiful up there. It is quite the ride tho, I think it took us 3 1/2 4 hrs.

Deines97.... Farmington nh is close to me... about 40 min- hour. I know of some awesome trails, if you wanna wheel sometime.

Hey...thanks for that... but I already have a fiberglass be for it, it is a stepside, and I just think its ugly.... I think I might throw that on just to get a sticker, then fab a flatbed, I am going to use this thing to haul firewood, so I doubt a fiberglass bed would last long.

Yeah I live about 1000 feet from the harbor up here. You should have left her with my wife and we could have gone for a little trail ride.

You must have been driving real slow. I travel to Westbrook everyday for work and I can make it to there in 1:45.
