Thanks. It's all just fun in the garage for me. I like designing/building things. Once I retire again, I may look at getting a part time job in a shop somewhere for fun.

That looks like a serious crawler.
You ever make it out to the left coast, you need to hit up Johnson valley and the Hammer trails.
Or at least fly out for a week to experience King of the Hammers.
It blew my mind first time I went. Second time I went, they had King of the Motos and that was even more insane.

My other vehicle(s)?

Sure! While they're NOT my daily drivers, they are my "Other Vehicle(s)!"

Picked up another project vehicle this weekend. Want to get it put together enough for hardware store runs and cruise nights. So far I’ve got her running and pulling fuel from the factory tank after sitting since 08. And made a big loop around in my back yard to make sure the drivetrains happy.She’s going to need a full rewire unfortunately though.

First vehicle I ever bought. Got it my Junior year of HS (1989) and spent the next few years fixing it up. It was wrecked and rusty with a 307 and a powerglide when I brought it home now it's a 327 4-sp

It was originally a 2wd, it was converted in the 80s it had a full drivetrain swap with 350/350 and they said a np203 but I haven’t verified the transfer case yet. Then in the early the engine was gone through, bored 30 over with a 400 crank, long tubes isky cam, and an elderbrock intake and carb, should be a healthy motor when I get it running and driving.

Friends of ours rented one of these in Colorado for trail riding and I was very impressed with it. Turning radius wasn't great but it went everywhere my built Yamaha did and carried 5 people. Good choice!

My father inlaw has a 21 viking 700 its a nice machine but toping out at 45mph is sad, what kind of yammy do you have? … i have driven plenty of rangers but getting the crew i can only assume it will be terrible to turn around on smaller trails lol
