another OZ truck--- KN33HI

hey guys and girls...ive been visiting this site for a long time now, but ive never put any pics of my truck on here...heres my buildup so far from start to finish.

heres where i started.


i strpped it back to nothing



and with a bit of hard work, it came to this, fully laid out , with the rear bagged, 4 linked and notched, up front bagged and a 40 mm Z notch and a cut down tranny x-member




cab back on and tubs for the front, engine bay painted in velocity red






back together and drving




AND THEN.....TRAGEDY STRUCK....
i hit a dirty big kangaroo and fucked up my front end (KANGAROOS ARE DIRTY VERMIN THAT NEED TO HAVE THEIR POPULATION CULLED), so i thought i may as well do something a bit custom...
















...and thats about it so far, ive started doin a bit more but no pics yet....ive got a long way to go, but if i pull my finger out it might get done a bit quicker.

looks good, and i know i may be dirty for laughing at the kangaroo, but if u live where i live you wont have to worry about those bastards jumping around, you'd have to worry about deer grazing on the side of the road lol

Dude thats some damn nice work. Thats going to be a sweet ride.

What color red is that you painted the engie bay with?? I like a lot.

For you hitting a roo the damage doesn't look that bad. When I lived in oz a few years ago I hit one the first day I had a car. I hit it hard, the car was a total and the damn thing just got up and hobbled away. They are by far worse than any deer problems we have here in the states.

Thats badass. I like what you guys do with the inner fenders.

man killer

wow, kangaroos must suck. nice lux tho.

The work, both before and after the roo impact, looks great. In Alaska we have moose that get hit regularly on the road. Try hitting a 900-1200 lb deer. It sucks. I hit one in a full size chevy, it took out the whole front, the left front fender, the door and the whole bed side. And that moose was only about a year old and about 600 lbs.

yea i hit a deer in my hardbody at 90 the whole front end was smashed and i walked away with a broken pinkie

lets face it, any fucking feral vermin that wanders onto any road is a bloody nuisance and deserves to be hit.....if only it wasnt by our trucks !!!

i started yesterday arvo making my corner fillers, i sat down for a while with a hammer and an anvil and banged up the drivers side filler and got it all welded in..i wish i was good enough to make it one piece , but im not, so i made it up in about 5 sections..today i cleaned it right up and gave it a skim of filler, its far from finished, but you get the idea...i like it, i try to do everything a little bit different than what most people do and i think the line i put in it is pretty subtle and makes it look a lot better than if i just bought a set of the smooth fillers and welded em in.
im gettin there slowly, if only i had more spare time

its gonna be a sweet ride no matter how long it takes you.
