Interior:
Started with a perfectly straight, rust free California body and frame and built the ultimate trail riding vehicle from there. 
- Custom roll cage that is tied into the frame in multiple locations with clearance to use a factory hard top or Bestop Soft Top (which is comes with). 
- Mastercraft Baja RS heated front seats that mount to the cage, along with a Mastercraft Rubicon bench in the rear also mounted to the roll cage.

- Autometer gauges, weather proof toggle switches Sony marine speakers and amp, CB and Icon HAM radio, and custom aluminum panels round out the custom interior in the front.

- Dual fire extinguisher mounts just behind the driver and passenger. 
- LED interior Dome Light

Exterior: Starting from front to back.
- Custom "Rust" paint job.  Yes, this is not actual rust, it is a paint by BASF that uses a metal based primer and a rusting agent is sprayed on then it is matte clear coated over.  It not only looks like rust, the texture and feel makes it feel like rust.

We have owned this vehicle since 2008.  Took a solid year to build it up before taking it out to play.  The paint job started out in Black, which you can see from the images was featured in JP magazine, also taken on the Ultimate Adventure and a few other Moab and Rubicon events.  It was an Army Green for a short period of time, then we went to the all rust that it is today.  We love this vehicle and take good care of it mechanically, but that does not mean that we did not wheel it as it should be wheeled.  It has been on its side a few times and rolled over once.  Each time we sourced new body panels and parts and fixed back up as if we were taking it to a car show to win a trophy.  The same mechanic that takes care of our race car takes care of this vehicle, which means after almost ever event we go to, we strip it down, clean it up and replace anything that did or could go wrong with it on our next trip.  So all the heims, springs, shocks, drivetrain/driveline parts are in race ready condition.  Exterior has a few trail marks on it, but nothing that does not make this vehicle the most looked at trail vehicle no matter where we take it from Moab to the Rubicon and everywhere in-between. 

The only reason we are considering selling it is to start a new project.  This is by far the longest I have ever owned or kept a vehicle, and that is saying a lot as I have owned more vehicles in my life than I have had birthdays (and I'm almost 42).  We are not in desperate needs to sell this, so please do not low ball me.  If we end up keeping it, I'm fine with that.  I believe there is a buyer out there that will appreciate all the hard work and design that has been put into this vehicle that will pay what is the right price for uniqueness as well as a trail rig that is just this side of unstoppable no matter what trail you point it at. 

Any questions, please feel free to ask.
