The answer: No one has bee able to confirm the existance of any of them! My build up puts Drew Persson, Jim Brink, and even the great Randii Burleson to shame. My build up can be measured on the geologic time scale!

I kept focusing my energy on other vehicles or interests and lost interest in the truck.I t was 99% done, but as any of you who have built a rig know that last 1% can be a PITA. So when I left for Hawaii I left the truck at a shop with a blank check. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/scared.gif" alt="" />

Today I finally got to use my rockcrawling truck for the first time in years, and it worked great! Photo evidence that my truck exists. The photos aren't the best (my buddy Dave took them) but they are not some grainy photo with my truck behind some shadowy trees in the distance either.

Oops, sorry I am back in Reno (profile has been changed). I have my Land Cruiser out in Hawaii, there is some decent wheeling out there but most of the land is private unfortunately. The trails around Reno seem much better suited to the truck. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I would love for you and Erik to come up to go wheeling some weekend, but I know the Jambo is next weekend. We will have to figure out a date, my schedule is a bit hectic at the moment.

Brink finished his and sold it (for a huge loss) shortly thereafter. He was last seen riding a BMW motorcycle. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/zombie.gif" alt="" />

And dang, Harry, you have photo proof (or a clever chop or 2 <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> ) that shows you wheel more than I do! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />

Hey Harry,

Warms my heart to actually see that thing moving under its own power. How's it running? Is it tuned???

Congrats!
