The Comparison
Here's a picture of Jr in his Clear Body.
Here's Jr in the flesh (so to speak).
Here's a Solid Model rendering of Jr. done in AutoDesks Mechanical Desktop software.
Here's a picture of Jr. in his Metallica Black Body. The Bodies are a custom version of
Parma's #10388 Dodge Ram Truck Body. I machined
them an insert to fit their form that made the tonteau bed cover. They took the insert as trade for a
few bodies, Thanx Steve Koapp and Parma!
This Clear body has the grill painted silver, the windows and trim outlined in black, and red tail
lights. It really shows off the guts of the truck!
Here's the beauty shot, this is my 8 color custom air brushed body that I painted for the RCCA
magazine article in July of 2000.
Body or no Body, that's the real question! This truck looks so great without a body that if it didnt keep dirt out I probably wouldnt even run a body! The Body is the only thing that makes this truck a Dodge.
As much as I love my full size Dodge truck, it dont have that! This suspension is insane in the rough stuff! It soaks up bumps like a liver soaks up beer!
