Not sure who's getting Ryan's 55, but for $18k your stealing one fine rig that's never been off road, except that pimple of hill down the street from IPOR. Ryan had a great vision for this 55 and all the hard work is done. I've watch this truck come to life and it had an impact on what I did on my 55 which IPOR is just finishing, except for the lift as mine's for light trails and street use. If you tripled the price you might come close to what he has spent, I don't have first hand knowledge of how much Ryan has in this truck, but I know how much I've spent and as we all know, there's nothing about building rigs thats cheap.

Lou,
Ryan is selling the 55 to me. He and I have had a couple of converations about the project and I have to say I am pretty excited to finish it as he would have done. I undersatnd the build costs as I have done a few myself. I laugh when it comes time to sell one cause I only get pennies for what I have spent. But I do it cause it is a hobby and a passion.
I have seen a few pictures of your 55 and hope to see it in person when I show up at Ironpig to scoop up Ryans.
I should also add that I am pretty psyched to meet Ryan in person. He seems like a hell of a guy. I admire his creation. That is the real reason I made the purchase. I need another cruiser like I need a hole in my head!
All the best and look for me down there in a few weeks to a month.

Is it finished? Back forsale?
 
progress is going slow but close to completion. New 37 krawlers installed lasty weekend. Steering and bump stops hopefully this weekend. Shake down run shortly after. Pics to come soon in 55 section.

if all goes well, it will be 99 percent by summer and off to the cabin to hang with the others. it will get some use up there on moderate trails.

not ready to get rid of it yet.....

the owner, goebs

I fell in love with this truck as soon as I saw it. Made me want to build one just like it. I'd love to see more & recent pics of it. Hope you're enjoying it.
