Willie Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 Hello all this i think is my first post here trucks are by far my favorite subject to build or more to the point four wheels drive tricks from show to hard core trail/rock crawlers im not sure about any rules for posting pics so i'll only include about 5 per post i hope that isnt too many. Well here they are the first is a Jeep CJ7 i built for trail riding and mild rock crawling The second is a hard core trail rig and rock crawler something you might see in Four Wheel and Off Road magazine's Top Truck Challenge its allmost completely scratch built The third isa Jeep CJ5 i built as a show and go type sort of like a daily driver The fourth is a fully scratch built hard core rig and crawler another TTC truck The fith is my pride and joy my 79 Bronco another TTC rig the suspension is in a "posed " postion So there are some any and all comments good or bad are welcome and Thanks in advance for looking Willie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
