Pics as requested.....
I bought my Cruiser in Calgary for the right price. It has spray can black rocker-guard type paint all over it but the job was pretty poorly done and it's coming off first thing. I should have enough money left over to at least get somewhat proper paint on it. The PO was a bit trigger happy and sprayed a lot of the chrome pieces with black paint. Luckily its come off pretty easy so far. Apparently cold-weather diesel anti-gel works really well as a paint thinner... paint needs my tender love and care, but the frame and power/drivetrain are doing great!
The first couple pics show it as I received it and the last couple show it after I stuck the mudders in the back and put on the more road-oriented tires for the drive. My plans are to keep this as a 4WD "bush-truck" and you can see that it has some bush-truck accoutrements/cut fenders, etc. but I'm excited to finally have a diesel cruiser.
