    Awesome little truck. Really nice work. But, seeing you drag the front suspension around while wearing those sandals is kinda disturbing.

    If you would have told me what you were going to do, I probably would have thought that it would be really ugly.:eek: Light green truck with a bamboo bed doesn't sound very "cool" to me. After looking at your pictures I think you nailed it. I could not have been more wrong. Looks a hell of alot cooler than I thought it would have. Low is cool but maybe a hair too low for my taste but it's not mine. If it were mine I'd be proud as hell to own it! Very nice work! Congrats on a beautiful truck! :cool: Way to think out side the box. I would have never thought of bamboo for the bed. Thanks for sharing!

    You didn't cut any corners in building it and the results show it. Very sharp, well engineered truck. :)

    that is some kind of well engineered kit you put in there, and you did a great job of putting it all together.

    In my opinion the truck would be just as cool (actually more cool) 5-6" off the ground with some springs. maybe even with some bigs and littles and a rake.
