Front and rear bumper designed - PICS

[lunyou]

I like to use autocad, not real good at it, but i like it. I decided to design a front bumper for the 60. I used 2mbb's design and then went from there. This is what i ended up with, I apologize for the obnoxious colors:

Next i threw together a new rear bumper that would be really simple to make and this is what came out:

The third and final picture is of the bed system i designed for the rear. It will be modified to allow for the rear seats when i get ambitous again.

I hope this helps someone in their ideas.

maybe toss a hitch into the rear bumper while you're at it.

There is a wire frame 60 or 62 floating around here some where you should be able to slap those onto to check for fit and finish.

The wire frame that import silvia mentions is a dxf. If you can't locate it I have a copy somewhere.

wireframe eh? any beasts floating around for 40's and 45's ?

i was wondering about the possibility of a autocad drawing of a 60 floating around somewhere....now i just need to find it.

im not a fan of the upsweep so much.....my design was flat on top......its all up to what you are going to use the cruiser for..... for me its going to end up being a daily driver with light to light-meduim offroad use so i will get all the clearance i need from my slight bottom slope. I do think that bumper is great for what is appears he is using it for.

of course this would go on my 60 series not a 62 series but hey i can't be picky when someone lets me have something that obviously took a long time to make.
