So my brother just bought his first truck about a week ago. He Loves my 40 but wanted something a little more for expedition's....so not a 40 series. We chose this 1990 62 that has been for sale for awhile, it has some issues but we picked it up for pretty cheap. The first thing we did was strip the whole inside and cleaned it. We both took this week off to start working on it. So yesterday we built the rear storage box which came out sweet for $60 bucks worth of material. Today we worked on the rear bumper....
Here are some pics
I thought i took more pics of the box while we built it but i guess i didnt. The back of the box is open where ill eventually put drawers if i dont like having it just open. The front of the box near the back seat has a lid and a nice size compartment to put recovery gear, etc. If any one want more pics of it i can take them.
Next is the bumper which we did today here is a picture of how it came when we got it.
First thing we did was cut the corners
After we ground those down we cut the tire carrier off
And then we welded it back on all the way to the right so that we can put a basket on the left side.
Its still not done but its getting there.
Let me know what you guys think. Suggestions and criticism are always good.
