J&M's New Build - New Pix post #58

Hey guys,

We just joined and few folks asked me to post the build we're doing. I know it's not really a UTV but I hope you like the concept. Feel free to comment good or bad. There's a lot of pix to get you caught up to where we are now. I'll try to get them in order.

Good eye Joey on recognizing what we're doing.

Looking really good Jim. Have you decided on a color for the frame & sheetmetal? is it going to have a truck body or buggy body. I say put a really big Rhino body on it.

Nice! Mosebilt does awesome work!

It's gonna have a dark gun metal almost black powdercoat on the chassis and white body panels. The rest of the aluminum will be white as well.

Black wheels

Maybe a little something like this???

Not bad

This was my inspiration for the color scheme and general look:

Gumetal is a great color for powdercoat & you can't go wrong with white.

I love that white buggy!! Is that an SU car? I remember seeing it for sale at Lucas Oil Glen Helen a month or so ago.

Yes, it's an SU. It belongs to one of our friends Wild Bill. Very nice ride but way out of my budget.

If you want, I can get you a good deal on it.
