Builds The '93 Troopy Hodgepodge (2 Viewers)

[SNLC]

Just about there on the Dynomat, a little left to do but not much.

Once all done everything will look like this.

Troopy looking proper with 315’s.

[SNLC]

New parts.

[SNLC]

More new parts and details.

Working on the cowl cap right now.

I know most of you guys are a fan of 33” skinny tires but I personally like 35’s. It helps off set the big bus body and gives it decent ground clearance.

Cheers

 

[SNLC]

Thinking about getting the mount on the body powder coated.

Not ready to install until we align the rear doors.

Them tarrs are phat.

Perfect.

 

[Fishbulb]

Man, I would love to run some 35 fatties on my narrow nose, but is it even possible without rubbing on articulation?

 

[coldtaco]

How about 35x10.5?

 

[SNLC]

How about 35x10.5?

Yup that’s what I would run to not have to much tire poke.

These wheels and tires are just what we have around that fit the Troopy. The tiny wheels and tires have to go on a 45-series pickup for transport at the end of this next week.

The owner did buy wheels for the Troopy.

34x10.5 would be my sweet spot. Get those rear leaves up off the ground…

 

[SNLC]

Just waiting on the rear mat to come in to complete these.

Looking awesome, can't wait to see this one done

 

[SNLC]

More progress on sound deadening.

They say 5-gallons for 100sqft, by my estimates with Dynamat order and than amount from that order used the surface area is just over 100sqft. So we will have six gallons of each (one tub yet to arrive) for spraying once prep is done.

Something pretty awesome showed up today.

Cheers

 

[SNLC]

Oh ya, this from last week when I had just got the doors done, quarters still awful tin can-ish!



Cheers

 

[SNLC]

Just a little more scuff/tape, a wipe down and we are ready to spray.

Cheers

 

[SNLC]

So we got all the adhesive for the pop top in the last week.

I just decided to get this sound deadening job done first. I was a little eager on the Alu-Cab and engine install right after the Troopy got back from paint because man oh man, I want them installed and off the shop floor asap.

All things in good time though, which is soon!

Cheers

 

[SNLC]

First coat done, waiting an hour to do the second.

Cheers

 

[SNLC]

It is taking its sweet time to be ready for the second coat. We got a flash window on this though as well as the next coating and this being the second coat of the Lizard Skin sound deadening I want it just right.

About 75* in the shop, it’s just about ready now for coat number two. Another 20mins or so.

Cheers

 

[SNLC]

Second coat done!

Five gallons is what it took, ceramic tomorrow.

Cheers
