BFA's "Back From The Grave" Resurrection build

yeah i was gunna let you know when i got it

 

K sweet thx

 

small update: took the 02 to get the title transferred and registered but was told that i dont have the right title.. wtf? apparently there was another title issued cause the guy i bought it from lost the old one requested a new one but lost that one so i had an old title that was voided. and i had to get emissions and i got that tent finished finally and today i have an interview at 2 and im hopingto have enough time to get pick up all that metal ive been meaning to buy

 

So the title thing is fixed? Mvd is stupid to deal with. Good luck on the interview.

 

hey how much did you get the 300ft of tubing for?

 

im gunna take care of it today when i get off of work so im gunna cross my fingers they dont come out with some other stupid crap i gotta do

i gotta get a hold of my friend and he said it would be roughly $3/ft maybe less if the guy would give more of a discount for buying in bulk

 

Sub'd for status

 

Have you considered using PVC tubing from Lowes or home depot? Fitting are pretty cheep and it would be easy to make. not sure on exact price where you live but you can get a 10' stick of 1-1/2" ch 40 PVC here for under $4. That's how I am going to make my paint booth. Except I am constructing mine in my garage so I am going with 3/4" sh 40. You could make a pretty strong tent out of 1-1/2" that, if properly done, could last outside for a while.

 

You talking about the tent?
cause he is using the tubing to make a bed and cab cage

 

i second the convertible idea...cut that bitch off and throw a cage in there...then make a canvas top to throw over for shade/cover when needed

unless you plan on this being your daily driver again, then that won't be too practical i guess, but for a rig..that would be bad ass

 

Jeep status!!

 

It would still be practical I'm sure you would just gotta take more time in creating the soft top.

 

That would be pretty cool actually! I would do it...

 

Do it Bryan!!

 

So I have a question... Isn't the cab what the VIN/Title is attached to? If that's the case, then swapping the cab wouldn't really be like resurrecting your truck... It'd be like a new regular truck with zombie parts... Right?

 

Nah because he is keeping the frame, engine, drivetrain etc..

 

Make it a convertible with a roll cage.....

 

I really want to know what the tow truck driver said<
"I aint seen no one as shit stupid as you, to roll a truck on a nice smooth gravel road"!
Were you trying to rally slide or something?

 

uh....
