If you're going to do a full length pickup then what about a Nissan Dakar pickup just for fun.  ;D


You're killing me?  ::) Actually I will see what I can do but my photoshop skills aren't that good either. I just discovered that method to alter a picture the other day when I was croping my pictures for my website. I used a clone feature to redraw parts of my rig or background. Works pretty neat. To add the wing and change wheels and all that stuff might be tricky but it will give me a chance to see what my wifes "Rally Kicker" would look like.

i like the long bed and extra cab... it makes the vehicle look a lot beefier somehow...  i wish i could get some kind of idea for my 2-door softy..  about the best i can get is an aerotop... i would like to have a panel going straight down from the top, to close the front from the back... and have like a removable window.... either that, or cut off that bar going up and over and somehow fixing that to where it can be removed (and the strip above the doors)... then, you can keep going with half-doors that can somehow be easily removed and reinstalled without having to take off the front fenders.... maybe all that is a little too much... but i would like an aero top, and removable half-doors

My vote is for the panel wagon.  You could put a raised floor and mattress in it for overnighters, and put drawers under the raised floor for storage.  You can lock it up so it would keep your stuff from "walking away"...

I was wondering what it would be like to drop a 2dr vert body on a 4dr frame, leave it a 4 seater vert with a lil pickup bed at the end...it would look a lot like the long bed picture when the top was down :)

that would be cool ;D
Or just put one of those big open air (canvas roll-back) tops on your 4dr.
With a rollcage installed of course. ;) ;D

Hey HotRod, how is it going "twin brother".  ;D  My picture there is a little over exposed. What all did you do to yours and what fender flairs are you running on it. I went wheeling all weekend and my tires kept throwing mud all over my mirrors.  :( BTW my Tracker performed awesome. I went trough some really ugly stuff with ease. Forgot my camera  :-[ . My client (I'm a hunting guide) was impressed with the things it would do. We actually camped out of it, which reminds me I need to comment in that thread about sleeping in one of these.

What size tires you running they look bigger than my 31s?

How about this?  Small cab and longer bed.

I'm using 32x11.50 BFG M/Ts, Zaps the power right out but what the heck.
The fender flares I found at a local truck repair shop. They are just the standard 3"inch flares.
Or
JC Whitney has them. 3"inch heavy duty flares w/o the wire

BTW. It has the Calmini 3"inch Suspinion lift, Homemade 3"inch Body lift (3 1/4), Trimmed the front fenders back to the floor boardsand the ShrockWorks Front bumper (which is Awsome BTW)
Now I have to trim the back bumper. The tires rub when getting fully compressed.

How long did it take to get your bumper? Mine has been on order about 3 weeks or so. I'm not complaining, just wondering what to expect. Also I am building a HD rear bumper for the 4 door kicks. The fabricators have my ACAD drawings but I am behind a couple other jobs. I'll post pictures of it when it's done..

If I recall  correctly,
I pre-ordered it back in June when They (ShrockWorks) were planning it ;D
So it is really hard for me to tell How long it took.
3 weeks isn't tooo bad yet, It takes over a week to ship it (mine came Fed-X)

I was thinking of swapping the back bumper from my 2dr for the 4dr but I'd stil like
 to keep that one together too.
BTW: I thought ShrockWorks was thinking of one?

P.S. Did you have any pics of your AstroVan?

I asked them about it and they said not for a long time. I told them I would just have to make up my own rear then.

Here is a shot of my Astro. Check out this web page for more. http://www.overlandvans.com/stevesvans.html
