Begining my stolen cruiser buildup.

[crimsonride]

Alot of you know the story behind this. If you don't here it is. http://www.rockymountainextreme.com/showthread.php?t=46776&highlight=cruiser

I've decided to build it back up. Here's the progress so far.

Sweet, glad you decided to build it back up! It's got some good parts. So what's the parts breakdown look like? I remember it had a TPI 350... but that's about it. If I can ask... how much did you score the parts Cruiser for?

So far It's got a TPI 350, sm465 (i think), 203/205 doubler, d44/14b (both spooled), That's mostly it other than a frame and stretched suspension.

I got the parts cruiser minus drivetrain for $250.00. Only thing that really came of it was a beat up tub I'm going to have to reskin (doesn't bother me cause I had to do it anyway for the stretch), and a front right fender.

I've got 38's on it now but no good pictures. I'll get some up soon.

Glad to see it coming back to life

For free to you Curt. Freak man, I've sent you like three emails. Maybe you didn't get them.

I'll pm you the adress.

That's "Suisuki's shop", Courtright Automotive Honda Specialists. Although lately it's been more of a jeep shop.

Just need a pipe bender and it's pretty much complete.

By the way, where's the best place to by a JD2?

Great police work

If the cops cant find it, you have to. I have had a similar experience I found my truck 2 months later (wife left the keys in it). $ 300.00 impound fee
Thanks God for ugly roll cages. I am glad you found it
It looks like you are well under way good luck on the build.

 

[crimsonride]

yeah, it seems like that's usually the case.

Kurt. I sent you a pm.

Carnival ride paint

Are you sure that was not stolen buy one of Lou Mendeze carnival workers? The paint looks like it came from the Tilt-a-Whirl! It was a nice camo paint job.

I can't get over how the chop shop guys were going to get rid of the good stuff.

I can hear them now.
Oh **** I dont know what the good stuff is, I have stripped a bunch of rice rockets whats good on these dam rock-crawlers !

 

[Bart]

Glad to see you've got it back in a build stage again, and that you got back as many parts as you did. Good luck with the build.

What are you talking about man? I made a dump of the place and left. I think I need to spend a full day over there just cleaning and stuff.

Thanks for the pics. I was going to post the ones on my phone but they suck.

man I dont know if its the emissions from that v8 getting to me or the 38's or what, but i'm thinking this thing is staring to get pretty cool. we should probably attach the body though

Yeah, or it might buck right off! ...that might be kinda fun though... see if you can last eight seconds.
