Thump140's Minitruck build

[Sneezy]

Hey guys

As you all know Tom Oswald (Thump140) was one of my best mates.

When Tom took his own life it hit me really hard, i spent nearly every weekend in Toms shed working with him, he was my boss for a while and i even quit my job as i could not deal with working in the same room Tom and i spent every day in.

Tom sent a email to his sister just before he did it, in the letter he left me a few bikes and his 1987 Mitsubishi Triton, i hassled him constantly to sell it to me as i wanted to turn it into a mini truck, so he knew i would look after it.

Below are some of the pics before and after of the truck, its taken 8 months but its slowly getting there, still needs, door pads, roof lining, carpet, rims and some rubber for the tray but that will all come soon now that i have a job.

Pictures below, let me know what you guys think

cheers
