Builds The great Stoffel (HJ61 build) (5 Viewers)

[TRAIL TAILOR]

I'm thinking about keeping the mirrors, the door handles, and the gutter trim in chrome and getting rid of the rest. The front grille is yet to be determined....

I have a really nice 62 grill if you want to experiment a little.

I always thought a HJ High Top ROUND EYE would look killer...

Actually it would, I'm just not sure I have the time to devote to the swap right now.

If you were only closer... and I had more time...

That is probably a good thing for my wallet!!!

Nah, I'd probably do that one for a case of Polygamy Nitro and some good conversation.

Also - in your photos of the Tuffy install, there is a hole visible in the dash below the 4high press button. I have the same and have always wondered what it was for when new?? Drew

I have the same hole. It appeared to be a switch that didn't work anything. It was likely for aux lights.

I'm not sure what the hole was for, but the wife's BJ71 has it in the same spot.

Are you guys tallying about the magic hand throttle hole? Every man should be able to fill that!!

TLC Norway, I have a hand throttle to the right of the steering wheel (RHD), however I am unsure of the 'magic hand throttle hole' that 'every man should be able to fill'.... My little finger would struggle to fit into this hole, so I might just leave it at that!!!

Hohoo, ok, so you have the magic hole covered. That means you have another extra hole? Hmmm... Then it would be a po-creation.

Yep, both the HJ61 and the BJ71 have hand throttles and the extra hole.

I'm in the same deliberation with the Red Dragon, De-chrome or embrace

Your truck looks especially sleek de-chromed with the black body

I'm not sure I like the chrome on the red, I'm more of a fan of black on red. For mine I want to leave a few pieces of trim chrome for some accent, but most of it can go away!

So, after winning a photo contest with Tepui tents they have chosen to use my photo of Stoffel in their campaign ad!! Here is the advertisement that will appear in the upcoming Overland Journal magazine. I'm pretty excited to see my photo in print!!

If you are looking to black out your grille, I'd REALLY like to trade you my grille and headlight buckets which are already painted. I want a chrome grille badly.

Truck looks killer by the way.

I'm on the fence about keeping the chrome grille. I think black would be too much black, but I might try to plasti dip it white just to see if I like it!

I know right??!! It's looking pretty damn good with all that gear. Maybe I should send you some pics to use too!! Lol
