never thought id own a dodge ...

[Melt]

well the back of one anyways, its a 75 shortbed ... $150 just needs some tlc ... gonna work on it some more over xmas break.

Plans include

Sandblast and repaint inside and out, hoping i can get a green thats close to the color of my Mazda
Fix the tailgate latch
Maybe throw a shell on it
Get a real hitch for the mazda, bumper isnt gonna cut it with this thing loaded up

Think we got enough trailers?

im stoked, renting a trailer next week to move back to my parents house woulda been 75, then when i finally head for az a rental for down there woulda been 300+ ... now i just gotta hope i can live somewhere in az where i have a place to park it.

[Melt]

heres a few more pics of me using it to move home

gonna start on fixing it up next week, my dad also has a nicer toolbox he says he will give me

 

[R3dline]

it needs a drop, paint the lip, and im not feeling the wheels,lol

 

[Melt]

if anything is getting dropped its the mazda, and the wheels will not be changing on the trailer unless i put cobra r's on the mazda and put the stockers on the trailer.

 

[R3dline]

lol i was just f**king with you, cool trailer

 

[Melt]

haha its all good i figured as much ... the "d window" style wheels that are on the trailers are actually very popular with people who off road.

 

[anfrey]

i love how you take ur grill with you!!

 

[Melt]

i take that f'n thing camping lol

 

[anfrey]

i take that f'n thing camping lol

[Melt]

[Melt]

finished all my coursework at csu chico

originally i was only supposed to be living at the folks house for a little over a month, but things went bad with the deal i had in phoenix, so now its looking like i may be here a while doing an internship in napa

 

[Melt]

some more work i did on it

took of the wood rack and most of it was real brittle and broke, so im gonna keep with my plan to source a cheap shell for it. pressure washed the whole thing and started sanding off the shitty paint job it had

toolbox that was on it

one my dad is giving me ... anyone need a hyundai accent truck? haha

more pics tommorow, ran out of daylight, as of now almost all the outside is done.
