Project Outline |
|
The1971 in dune beige has been fully restored and updated to the
76 and newer style. Pre 74 had a smaller motor, 3speed trans, bench seats,
no roll bar ect, ect. However the 71's are just cool, they are very basic
inside, they have metal door inside trim & three way rear doors, they look
real tough but they lack a lot of the modern amenities people enjoy. In this
rig we have tried to achieve the best of both worlds by adding some modern
touches while retaining its rustic charm. The following is a list of the
things we did to her. |
