Re: Otter's 89 Black and Tan
Considering all the nice work you have into it and how clean it looks, it's a killer deal. Seriously wish I had some money to burn because this thing is Rad!!

Re: Otter's 89 Black and Tan
Thanks man. I really do like this thing. Just getting out to play with it is the problem. I won't be upset if it doesn't sell.
I am already trying to plan a trip next year for my son's birthday. Hopefully make it out to Ridgecrest in April with him.

Gotta love the 'Burg, And Dog patch, Igors tower and other spots on the Kern County/San Berdo line.....There are some really good high speed areas East of 395 just off the lake bed.

Hey otter are you from norcal? Go check out jawbone, last chance canyon, dove springs. I did some work out there when I had my 4runner and would go explore everyday after work. Lots of old and new gold mines, talc mines.

I sold them to a guy in the Santa Cruz area. Don't remember his name. I think his DR name was Netto94 or something.fomoco51 wrote:I had a friend buy your old ttb set up on your exploder I think.

Re: Otter's 89 Black and Tan
I know its awhile back but just starting my own build looking to copy your bumpers. Curious to what size tubing and was it an esthetic thing or clearance issue to why you cut the radius off on the end of front bumper

1.75 main tube and some 1.5" on the corner kickers. As for the radius, Personal preference.
