Our 1960 vintage 220KAK 26' Box Van Trailer (Ammo Toter) has those old "bullet lights" for all the running and marker lights. A local truck parts house has a bunch of NOS red & yellow lenses and bases at very reasonable prices - I didn't see any clear lenses though.
Nice thoughts [thumbzup]
Although, in regard to the SPARES.... Under the loads carried on this particular rig, there are already FOUR spares on the ground as well. Each of the rear duals could be stripped down to singles and still have mobility. I would dedicate that space to something that...
...Once again proving that 8-Tracks were the "tape players from HE|_|_" - They can hauntingly play even without any 12vdc lifeblood - Kinda like a Zombie Sound System. They DID love to eat tapes, too :!:
OK - So far, so good [thumbzup]
I've sprayed the ends of the front bumper with the same tan as used on the rest of the camo scheme. Just the recttangular areas for the bumper numbers.

Zombies is ZOMBIES.... no real "code" about it. All those zombie movies are actually "TRAINING FILMS" for the Zombie Apocalypse :!:;)
IMHO, the tow vehicle should be self-sufficient from the trailer in case abandonment of the trailer becomes a necessity, or for setting up a base camp and then"scouting" or foraging expeditions ensue. Fuel and tools on the trailer ain't gonna help the truck unless they are together.
INTERCHANGABLE BEDS.....
WOW !
This reminded me of some toys I had from my childhood which might have been the basis for my LOVE of MV's.
The Mighty Mike 6x6 and 4x4 trucks were true all-wheel-drive, low gear, high torque toys.
They had INTERCHANGABLE BODIES and the 6x6 even had a VERY...
Good Job !
Between you and UncleMikey, the rest of us have tons of inspiration and food for thought. Good Job - to both of you.
Does your camper have a PortaPotty of a Holding Tank?
I'm thinking that Holding Tanks mounted under the bed might have some advantages in capacity and access...
