[Panzer07]

Well done on the paint job! Thats one really unique H3!

Yeah i gotta say from my perspective it looked ballsy as hell to repaint it "camo" id be too afraid of messing it up! But yours looks frickin' sick with the camo paint! It proly looks even better in person!

Thanks for the kind words gents,uniqueness.

And banana tank I was afraid myself, I have no experience with paint what so Eve except the little experience I got from camo-ing some of my gear in the army...

So far so good...I was cruising thru some bad bushes and death vegetation and scratch up the body pretty good but the paint held up pretty good hosed down some of the dust. inspected the paint and all good no scratches or paint peel, so I think my painting method work out pretty good.

I like this version better, minus the gloss finish that just kills the whole camo...in my opinion.

Anyways once I have more time, proper painting equipment and money my plan is to have my truck rocking every krypteck camo patterns.

I remember that one, the owner had it warped and was the first one to use the brownie pan for the CB antenna.

Got my dash plaque on, I put it on my windshield, so I guess it is a windshield plaque now...and I know it wasn't designed to be put on the windshield and might not last that long but I figure I can always buy another one.

That snow-camo H3 would look way better without the chrome.

What do you mean brownie pan for an antenna??

 

[Fish]

Sounds like a pan you poop on...sorry, just ignore me :no: I'm bored

hey now that looks great out in the field!!! like your antenna idea, i have been eye balling that idea for a long time but have not came across one yet. also eyeballing the idea of the thick antenna thats made for blocking signals, and possibly the flare launcher setup. heres what i got in mind but no idea how to make it work right now. i still got to figure out my blackout switch crap too. i got to many ideas and not enough time and money right now.

I know how u feel buddy, I'm trying to figure out where to put my big-o-tall-antennas. Like I can't put them on the tail gate, because for one they'll be too close to each other so they might interfere. I'm thinking on the sides (rear) but I think they'll mess with the flexibility of the antnnas...or I'm thinking on perhaps the rear-side-upper plastic accents...but I'll need to find a way to bolt down those sucker good and place some sort of metal she inside where the antenna mount will bolt on so if I hit a tree they don't brake and fall off....this is my dilemma right now because they are long as hell... But we should see for now my ancient hand held cb radio that I picked up in a yard sale has work pretty good lol XP if anything I'll mount them on my roof rack whenever I get it...have those antennas real high...weak, and broken signal would be a thing of the past lol.
And I'm digging those smoke grandad launchers lol.

I'm guessing he's referring for when people take off te spare tire and the spare tire mount and that left with the big oh square hole...and so some of ten just bolt in a baking pan big enough to cover the hole...and in this particular case this individual might have mount a cb antenna on it.

...in such a hurry to get home to open your early Christmas gifts to yourself that you forgot to stop for gas! Kinda like Pavlov's dog that forgot to eat because he was OCD about other things, like chasing balls over and over again!

Hahaha that's funny. but nah, more like I forgot my wallet...as usual, so I wasn't able to get gas...a hidden compartment to store my belonging such as credit cards and driver license should be one of my future mods I'm always forgetting my wallet.

No, I haven't even got it yet...my school messed up in my financial aid thing so I haven't got paid yet...and that was the money I was gonna use to buy the lift kit...but no biggie that money will get here when it gets here, this gives me time to acquire all other components I'm gonna need...still need to get the crown breaK lines, scorpworks steering bracket and shock...perhaps I even some alpha torsion keys...I was gonna rush into the lift but I finally came to terms with myself that I should take my time...and this way gather all the necessary component and mods so I get everything done at once. That way I don't have to take everything apart and put it back together more than once lol.
