This truck is a true hybrid - FORGET the Prius! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

It has Betsy II's engine, some of her body panels (not that there are many left! LOL!) and interior bits , and has been cut TWICE, first time into a four door mini-box truggie, now a two door "trayback". It just keeps getting cooler. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

No longer resembles what I used to refer to as "the limo" back in the day! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

Here's where she came from... just for posterity sakes...

Mine has several electric motors. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

Engine and pass door is all thats left from Betsy II. The first cut from early on in this thread (Phil's truggie)was my 4 door PU chop. I wanted to be able to carry fuel and other undesirable items to have in the cab outside with out a rack. How ever it grew into a desire to lose as much weight as possible from the truck to help it perform better down the road while loaded with all of my camping/wheeling gear.

The tray is not very heavy, probably 120lbs. I actually had to add some weight to it or change out the rear suspension. The anti squat is strong in these trucks. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

There will be more after the truck is back together but I will save that for another day.

Oh and I'm sorry to do this Phil, but this is a truggie. Not that I minded it being called that, but I'm not sure it fit.
