Congrats!

Just read over the article last night, nice spread. It's great to see a big 80 article mixed in with all the buggies. Nice work!

Wrench · 08-26-07, 12:36 PM

George did you have to trim to fit the 40's in the fenders? Because I don't think physically a 40 inch tire can't fit between the wheel wells.

...of the dent

ArmyFJ · 09-07-07, 09:59 PM

You.....I am going to have to go buy a copy, are they out?

TiredIronGRB · 09-07-07, 10:06 PM

Yep...you can get them at Barnes and Noble, Books a Million, Advance Auto, Auto Zone, and Borders.

Josh83 · 09-08-07, 02:50 AM

Now you can relocate the tank elsewhere. That will make room for a CRAWLER.

GreatLakesWaterjet · 09-08-07, 07:49 AM

George, got the mag yesterday. Nice write-up! Its nice to see 80s getting the attention they deserve, especially yours. But I guess you have to have portals to get it

. That makes me miss the hills of Tennessee even more. Great work George! Now send me those portals!

beno · 09-08-07, 12:59 PM

Nice work George. Well-deserved considering the originality of your truck and the well-thought-out modifications you've accomplished.

Good work.

Cheers.

What an awesome, unforgetable 80. Good luck with it.

TiredIronGRB · 09-08-07, 09:50 PM

You can get a those hitches at any Tractor Supply or on ebay. The 3FE sticker was from the Yahoo 3FE forum, I heard they quit making them.

80jay · 09-09-07, 04:57 PM

Does that pintle hook up with the stock bolt pattern on the bumper?

TiredIronGRB · 09-09-07, 05:12 PM

Yes...
