Wooden bumper!

[koda6966]

Yeah, you just wish YOU were this poor. XD

Took some when I got home from work too. Got some looks driving down the road with this one.

No flex pics from the Quarry. Although I did try out my skyjacker coils on a couple rocks as I was leaving. It wasn't too good, haha. I need to get my own camera so I can get pics of more places than my driveway.

It's just a temporary bumper until the old one gets put back on. For more info check this thread.

hahahahahahaha...u should keep it or build yourself a pre runner one

 

[koda6966]

I want a pre runner one but I don't have the money.

I finally got the funds together to repaint my old one. It's going slow, taking off the paint is harder than I expected. I'm tempted to just toss the paint removal wheels in the trash and go buy some heavy grit sandpaper.

Get some closet rod and make a set of rock sliders!

try paint stripper in an spray can.

I have to take the top layer of rust down too.

The wheel isn't working that good with the rust, but it's doing a good enough job for me.

Do I have wood?

I did when I saw That beautiful truck!

At least the wood won't go rusty. perhaps I should build a new body for my b2 out of wood, stop giving me ideas.

Thanks!

There's a good point.

If you look close you can see the one side is missing a chunk, the wood is rotted. I added plywood for support. Looks like wood isn't so amazing after all. Haha.

try a wire wheel on a drill

 

[koda6966]

I said ef you to the environment and whipped out the big nasty can of industrial paint stripper we keep in the basement.

It worked pretty good. I still have to touch up the bumper a tad with the wheel.

 

[Chance]

Love it! You gonna start a bumper fab company? I'll take twelve!

 

[koda6966]

Sure, it will take me about 10 minutes to do em all up. XD

i know a big diesel that used to have a 12"x12" chunk of wood for its front bumper, totaled a womans car when she backed into him lol
