The boss calls it the Vampire because it's sucked some of his precious money. Heh. I don't think so, but if you spend a few more thousand to "get it right", it's well worth it to me.
Many adjustments have been done. The main one was the drive shaft in it. Seems the former owner wanted it to be more of a rock crawler. He even kept the old drive shaft and we had it replaced with that one.
Then there were the tires and rims. We put the tires on the boss' chevy on the jeep and purchased the rims for this one. There are new shocks and also the lift that we did to make it balance. I forget what that thingy is in the front (it's gold right now) that is below the front bumper. Anyway, that is new.
We had a chrome grill cover added and we just put on the gun metal hoodset last week. Gun metal costs a little more but it's suppose to be rust resistant. Oh, and there are new seat covers on it. It's the material that skin divers use.
It has a 350 chevy engine in it and I took pics of it so you can all see it. Under the hood the boss wants to have "The Vampire" painted on it. As a reminder, I reckon. http://vbb.evyl.org/images/smilies/biggrin.gif
Other items that we want to add:
New top and the new rhino spray stuff added to the floor of it. It will be black like the top. We were going to have a different paint job but I kinda like it white. And we are thinking of having a custom made cooler/seat added to the back.
Swamp tried to help me on the pics but for some reason (which is nothing unusual for me! LOL!) I couldn't get them to post here. So, here are the pics or some of them.
