I was wondering the same thing. It seems a little beat but idk. The logo on the door looks familiar tho I can't read it. Inside joke maybe?

i was gonna say the same. id drive it. dunno bout every day tho

Here's what I saw sitting behind him for 10 seconds at a stop light. cage work / spare time setup was scary in person, stock non trussed rear axle with the 4 link tabs welded to cast center section.

I'm sure there was plenty more but not being able to look it over kinda bummed me out.

Aha, w/ that it all makes sense. I just thought it was older fab work. The tubes on the spare looked jenky and the dead tubes in the bed were funky too but I couldn't see the rest of it. Too bad you didn't get more pics of it. It sounds like a real winner

Can't find a toyota bed...no problem!

I would agree with that. No weld...

First tiny weld....

Second huge weld. Only broke because I was even more retarded then before....

Yep. Spank you. Spank you very much.

I'm sure now someone will say you didn't pre heat the cast section properly.

That Chevy looks like it's the Nissan with a blue cage (Vegas) of Simi Valley, haha.

Lol all those were over a 2 day period in the desert. I drove him with the rear end like it was in the last picture. It was literally held together by a ratchet strap.
This explains it all:

I dont htink i would trust his spare tire carrier design either looking out how it connects and all. The link mounts look sketchy too but hard to tell.

And not the mention the front mud guards.. The Anti-Poon for sure.

sick limit straps:

It fuckin sucks like all other bajachop stuff. That front end look like its 107" wide and the bed sides look like shit the way they are mounted and I doubt the fornt end pulls 19"s and that spindle is single sherr on the lower uni and that is enough ands for now

plus the FUCKING DUBS, and the spindle is from cst, they just added to it
the factory tie rod is the best steering setup i have ever seen on a chevy
wheel spacers too

and i just spotted boxed J/A arm
