Only thing that made me cry was the price.
Well, actually... it made me laugh.
Looks like about the best possible use of a 20-year-old vehicle to me.

Actually I would rock that thing trout fishing. Looks like a pretty decent conversion.
It's a little to tall for east coast trails though.

It's not a popular view on Discoweb, but I hate to see someone making drastic changes to these vehicles you can't undo.

Even when someone mentions they have to cut to fit a bumper, I cringe.

Aside from the price, I kinda like it. Looks pretty well done and I've seen enough RRC's with rust issues sufficient enough to make them a good candidate for major changes. I tend to think that something that is relatively rust free or unmolested should be protected at this point (RRC or D1) but if the damage is already done, why not play with it more?

I wanted to hate it but hell, I kinda like the thing... especially after seeing they already installed a stripper pole for the midgets

I hate these "builds" and I'm sad that he chopped up a RRC.

But, damn.

That looks cozy back there. Sitting here in this shitty PNW rainstorm, I wouldn't mind being out in the woods, camped inside there. Heating water for some coffee on the stove, then sitting at the little table while I drink it. Then crashing out on that sleeping platform with an actual mattress, not some shitty inflatable thing in the back of my 110.

I like campers. I'd love a Dodge Ram 2500 4x4 with one on the back. Land Rovers are just the shittiest possible platform for this kind of thing.

You're going to hate my next build then. :D

The price is high and I don't know how useful it would be on the east coast. But I kinda like it, especially for open west cost type camping/wheeling.

I just hope he's upgraded the axles and diffs with all that extra weight running 35's.

What are you talking about? The back of 110 is perfectly good for a rainy night dinner.
