Disco tray back project

[Jack300tray]

Hi all, Iv had the truck or a while now and thought I'll share my progress with others.

So far Iv tubed the front end and reconditioned the engine. Not to long ago I decided to chop the back and make a start on the tray so here are a few pictures to get the ball rolling

Another buy for the truck!!! A storage box for when the rear tray is done. Planning to sit it on a winged tray back

That looks like it's going to be amazing when your done. Top looking work!

Started on the electrics today and long story short, I no longer have the keys to the truck so Iv decided to wire up my own start up panel! As I'm putting the batteries behind the seats, the plan is to put a panel on the central arm rest replacing the lid. I will also put switches for roof lights and other accessories. Iv bought a key switch to wire up to the fuel stop solenoid.

We must know more about how you no longer have your keys, short story long! Pannel looks good so far.

Finally got the cab finished today after the cold spell we have had, thought I'll crack on while we have had that bit of extra light at night

I'm guessing that he's welded them into one of the door pillars. I do that sort of thing on a daily basis.

Change of plan with the switch panel!!! But it's in and ready to hook up the power

 

[BlueBeauty]

Looks good, what are the two switches for?

Looks good, what are the two switches for?

rockets and machine guns

 

[BlueBeauty]

Of course! Silly me! @ Jake

 

[Jack300tray]

Rockets?! If only haha may have to rig some up back to the switchs, key switch is for the fuel stop on the pump. Rocker switchs are for first stage ignition and second stage with the start button to fire the old girl up

 

[Jack300tray]

Tube work is bent and ready to weld!! Will be glad to see it start taking shape I've also decided to cut the chassis down some more to tidy it up with the tray.

 

[Jack300tray]

Switch panel all wired up with a home made wiring loam and works perfectly Everythink works so far!!!!

[Jack300tray]

Finally got round to doing the rear tube, glad it's starting to take shape now

 

[Jack300tray]

New fuel tank on and frame made! Just needs I lick of paint. Plan is to raptor the whole truck! No more scratches I hope hahaha

 

[Tomushh]

Considered Raptoring my whole truck as well, will keep a keen eye on the result Looks good so far!

 

[Jack300tray]

So the rub down has started!! Colour scheme will be black raptor with orange bead lockers and the flex kit/trailing arms etc.
