Well one more addition to my 82 truck.
Here's the latest on the tube work being done to it.

Still have to get the sliders done and do some more finish welds add light tabs for the turn signals and sand and paint it.

Similar in design to the badlands bumper but way lighter and stronger since it is welded right to the frame. We can pretty much put any kind of winch we want on it we used 1/4" plate for the mount. We had the winch plate bent at Iriqouis a place that fabricates dumptruck and utility work beds.
My buddy Damien does some nice work though for just using a cheap harbour freight tubing bender.

I gave him the designs for the badlands one he made it as close as he could without directly copying it.

No I wish.
It's my neighbours 05 STI.
He upgraded his turbo and exhaust system he is pushing 435 HP with it right now. It's really, really, fast.
He is selling it actually for $29,000 he paid $34,000 cash for it this year.
