So what's the 10% left to be done? it's running?
Ryan,
I am trying to convince myself to get rid of a couple cruisers I have and make space. Now I am thinking more seriously then ever cause I realy like your project. I have been following the build here and there. I wanted to do the same with my 45 wagon, but not to the extent you have due to lack of mechanical skills.
I will put some more though into my decision for sure. I am hesitant getting rid of the wagon, but my 40 is replacable. Not to mention, the space in the 40 simply doesn't work for me and my three little dudes.
Could you shoot me a pm with your number so I can talk to you further.
I should delete this before hitting submit....but I have a cruiser problem like most on this board!
Thanks!
Eric Goebeler

Ryan,
Please check your pm's. I would like to talk to you about the 55. Very interested!
Shoot me a phone number so I can call you, not to mention a zip so I can check the distance....
My cell is 847-812-9631

- Recover the rear seat - I have the material
Do you have the same material as the front seats or is it more like the original material?
** It is the exact same material as the front seats. It was ordered from the company the same time I bought the seats.
- Have new door panels and cargo panels made - I have the material
Original style or brown like front seats?
** The material for the door panels is the same as the material from the front seats as well.
- finish wiring up the electric lockers switches front and rear
Is this a tough job or can an rookie do it?
** Lance (owner of Ironpig) says that is is a pretty easy job, I just didn't have the time, or desire to have them do it.
- Plumb and charge the A/C unit
Do you have the parts to complete? Can this be done prior to purchase by Ironpig's Crew?
** I have all of the pieces, except for the lines. The lines would have to be custom made, by an A/C shop. Ironpig doesn't have the ability to do A/C.
- Check all the wiring for the lights/turn signals
Can this be done prior to purchase by Ironpig's Crew?
** This could be done, but I would refer you to Lance after the purchase. I have asked them to stop working on the truck, since my life has changed.
- Install seatbelts
Original or Aftermarket type?
** They are aftermarket seatbelts that Lance has used in many 55's.
Ryan, this may save you a phone call, or at the least, cut down my question list.
By the way,
If I were to fly in, what airport is the closest?
** The closest airport is probably DC, but I wouldn't trust the truck to drive a long distance, since it hasn't been on a really long shake down run. It is great to drive around, but if it was me I would do many short shake down runs before I trusted any truck to drive any long distance.
