RobRez 1,895 Posted August 1, 2014 Report Share Posted August 1, 2014 I've been spending a lot of my time lately rebuilding the motor for my '85 4runner. Also re-painted my camo in a simpler bolder pattern. I even scrubbed out the engine compartment and painted it camo, even behind my grill, my fan and shroud, basically everything paintable is now camo. I also added a nice bumper addition. The motor is a 22re bored .20 over with a "crawler cam" and performance head. Runs awesome and strong now, as the old one had 340,000 miles on it. 9 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

RobRez 1,895 Posted August 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 1, 2014 (edited) The blade is a Zombie Tools Backwoods machete. Bad ass 1/4" thick, heavy and razor sharp! It easily took the head off of my Deer this last year. One good swipe, just a "Click" as it went through the spine. Yeah most folks back off when I am going shooting!!

RobRez 1,895 Posted August 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 Using donor doors from a parts rig to make these!!!! Half doors will be fully functional as far as open/close with a latch. I will incorporate a cup holder in the door, and eventually, snap-on windows. This is todays progress. Weird angle pic...this is both doors up against each other, to show how I tried to get the identical piece removed from each door. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

RobRez 1,895 Posted September 28, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2014 (edited) We've gotten a few Grouse, and Antelope season starts real soon. Then Deer and Elk. Hopefully these pics will include critters soon. One from my latest scouting trip. We had a very positive interaction with the local Game warden, who of course checked our birds and permits, but also answered a ton of questions on hunting areas new to me.
