That's what I was thinking......the driveline angle didn't leave enough room for a transmission

Cool concept and would love to see it for real

Those conversions are pretty cool, but he's bragging about making an already top-heavy rig even worse on 10" lift! And the price....wow!

I saw this thing cruising up Wadsworth at 88th. It definitely gets your attention. It looks pretty cool but I agree, a little big and top heavy for much around here. Great for very easy, wide open trails though.

Jeff and I took a look at this today. The owner has a line on a rolled EB and might be rebuilding it in the future.

I don't know if you are still looking, but it's fun to post cool rigs.

This Dodge van looks like a steal at this price!

It's ok JD, you can have this one, its not really my style. Of course these days the need for 10 passengers is a bit behind me.

Sorry, this doesn't even come close to a good DD, but it's too unique not to share!

Reminds me of a build I read about as a kid in a hot rod mag called "Quadraduece" which was an AWD drive '32 Ford with way more power than it needed.

So I actually bought a daily driver, or rather agreed/offer to buy. Not final yet will take a few days to sort out the final details. It's something fun and a bit more modern. [emoji41]
