Old School CHEVY Safari truck

[adamcrawls]

Well I decided since my s-10 didnt do to well in the last comeptition i figured i would start a new project this will be a African Safari truck i totally hacked the bed off and made a new one out of tube and made a canvas top with a roll up bac and this will have plenty of scale accesories for ex. hi-lift jack,tent box,cooler,blankets,fire extinguisher,roof rack sparetire, maybe some roof lights,and etc. so here are some pics hope you enjoy and still debating color for paint so help me out here and the back bed has a custom interior with toolbox and bench seat so tell me what you think and remember vote for me in the next crawler comp (if it is a crawler comp) if not i will enter my drag s-10 if drag PICS!!!! O and almost forgot I will also get some pics of my trailer hand built out of styrene

















this is the back interior you can kinda see it

I like the idea!

The trailer is sweet too! So can we see what pulls it? Or is there anything pulling it?

[Scionbeave]

It looks good man and that trailer is freakin sweet!!!

[adamcrawls]

umm whats pulling it is in the works to but im going to scrap whats pulling it and make it a chevy ha

[theoriganalRiD3R1967]

what color is the new truck gonna be? any zebra stripes or sumthin for a wild effect?

[adamcrawls]

maybe thanks for the idea i was thinking like a tan but thats way better

[theoriganalRiD3R1967]

so you like the idea of a zebra paint scheme...wow i am literally touched, i didn't tink you would consider it, you could even make it into an army truck right now if ya wanted to...

[adamcrawls]

i was thinking that but i already have some trucks painted army green i promise to make some progress over the weekend

[adamcrawls]

Sorry about the double post but my post got deleted

well i think i finished my interior and i took it to my lhs and the lady was like wheres the gun and i was like hmm not a bad idea and i thought a trailer for the animals would really set it off and A DRIVER (safari adam) o and a 7 up can PICS!!!!!!! the chasis has stage 2 w/neos
