Okay Mark, it's official - I've wheeled that buggy twice now so it qualifies to be my new Rig of the week on the bulletin board. Make sure you get a nice photo of me Dancing

I probably already have a good picture from "that" trail we did 2 weeks ago Laughing
Do you have some specs you want me to put on the page? Maybe cut and paste from the PBB ad?

Did they get any pictures when they flopped it at TDS? That would make a good one to post. Very Happy

Done...
http://www.spinninfours.com/vince7.htmlI also added the 4Runner to your previous rigs page and moved the LWB Sammi to Jorge's Rigs (sorry, it was never on an official club run so it doesn't qualify for Vince's Past Rigs Laughing )
