Is that your new rig Bob? It needs a bright Orange stripe along the bottom of it.

I wish, I asked Ryan if I could "borrow" it for a SCORE trip. His response was, sure, we rent it out for $80k deposit...no need to return :D

I did get a nice AGM for the front window.

That's one of Vildosola's chase trucks.

...of course with Dave Clarks Road Box crammed with every tool imaginable!! Talk about 10 lbs in a 5lb bag!!

I don't think they manufacture those fiberglass service bodies anymore.

I do know that Gus Sr has two brand new ones in one of his shops in Mexicali. When we asked if we could buy one from him for our personal truck he just laughed at us and walked away. I guess not.....
 
Here are ours now, I'll get some better pics of the "new" look for V2R.;)

Saw this truck down at the Baja 500... they had pitted next to ours and my son took a number of pics.. because of it, I ordered a 2012 Meg Cab 4x4 dually in all Silver....planning on having my Alcoa's powercoated black too. I guess I have no imagination :rolleyes:
 
When I was spending a lot of time racing, chasing and pre-running in Baja, this was my rig. I sold it a couple of years ago, but I miss it! :eek:

About a year ago I picked up this 93 F350 for $1500. It had a cracked flex plate (7.3idi non turbo diesel). It took a while to find the parts I needed but now she is all fixed. The reason I am posting this here is a lot of the UTVs operate on a limited budget. So building a chase truck is not in your budget. But a year later and less than $2500 (light bar was free RIGID IND 4 LIFE!) I have a nice diesel crew cab 4x4 chase truck.

Awesome thread, I used to drool over all the chase trucks when I was racing. I have a buddy that has a few, I will get some pics for you guys, nicely done up.
 
I installed some Rigid Ind dome lights today. I wired them into the stock dome light so they come on with the door switches. You never have to much light in a truck in Mexico.

Here is a flatbed design I am working on for my truck. I want to be able to haul a UTV on the back and still carry spare parts. There is 4 storage pods underneath the bed plus the dovetail section opens as well.

I really like the flatbed option for hauling a UTV. No more doing 55mph with a trailer. Plus the ability to park easily and haul your UTV into remote locations. This is one design, I will start on another design later this week. I want one a little more rock crawler based.
