heh. i dont plan on actually working out of it since image is so important
(show up looking like little abner and they dont take you seriously) but its
definately going to make a good toy hauler and eventually the drivetrain
should end up under a cj.

I dunno. Maybe it currently looks a bit L'il Abner, but if you

For example, something more like this:
