So here it is...the new toy...which I will be calling "The Beast" It is pretty rough on the outside..the only part of the body that doesn't have a dent in it is the hood and isn't the paint job attractive? I guess it will make for easy repairs to the paint job...just grab some spray paint. One really cool thing about it is the top. The back part is a soft top and it comes off but it has a bikini top underneath so you get the effects of a covertible but can still be out of the sun. Fun!!! I am sure there are other really cools things about it but I don't have any idea about that stuff. Jack will have to do a follow up post to explain all of the in's and out's. But apparently it has tons of great 4-wheeling parts. The people we bought it from built it from a stock GMC Jimmy. They showed us pictures of its transition and told us lots of stories of the great times they had in it. I felt like we were taking a member of their family from them.
Jack is currently trying to plan a time with friends to go out & test it out on some serious off road trails. If it is passes (which am sure it will...you should have seen the pictures of some of the places this thing has been...amazing!!)and it continues to do well as a daily driver for Jack, we will be taking it to Moab for the "Blazer Bash"...that is Blazer as in the truck not the name. Can't wait to go. Jack's brother went last year and had a great time so we are looking forward to the trip.

That thing is Uuuuuugly! Very appropriately named. You won't have to worry about scratching the paint!
Great toy but David says it has too many wheels.
What happened to the Jeep???
Jeep? We haven't had a Jeep in awhile. We still have the X-terra...that is my everyday driver..we WON"T be getting rid of that. We do have a Tahoe for sale if you know anyone that needs a bigger car.;0)
