M135 or M211 bob-job's? Anyone?

[CDN-CUCV]

I'm wondering if this has been done and if so, I'd like to know more. Did a lil' photochopping and this has got me all thinking of doing a modified early deuce. I found a good candidate for a bob and chop and powertrain swap so I'd like to hear any of your thoughts. Thanks.

I think it's a cool idea. Go for it!

I almost did one myself, but found a `59 REO to bob instead.

Go for it it look more like a hot rod with the curved hood. I think twin exhaust stakes would look good to.

i like it, go for it, from your picture, the top looks chopped, which looks good, put a little smaller tire on it and lower it to the ground a bit...

LOW AND SLOW WITH TWICE PIPES, FLAME THROWERS AND A NINE INCH CHAIN STEERING WHEEL....SWEET....

I think it's called a Unimog.

I like it, reminds me of Sam the Eagle from the muppets.

I particularly like the chopped part.

You do good photo chopping; you even got the power pole between the slats!

I thought I'd tick off a purist or two Yeah, I'm a hot rodder first and I thought this would be a great way to save a relative 'basket-case' that would be hard pressed to find someone to commit to finishing it.

i like the idea
go for it

I think the chopped top looks cool, but I would hate to have to live with one. Allso, I think a 135 would be much easier to deal with than a 211 due to the rear axles.

If you don't mind me asking where did you find a truck? I think I know of one on the Island.

This one I talking about is on the island, it's an M135. Where is the one you're talking about? pm me if you like.
