Default THE Bowfishing truck project

Well I guess theres some time in life when we all get T-boned by a semi truck.... just literally happened to me

Well to make a long story short last Thursday I was pulling out of a 4 way stop and then BOOM, The truck driverran the red light and crushed in the side of my Station Wagon (RIP old friend) which got totaled and so therefore I jumped on the chance to buy a truck with the money from the totaled wagon. I found me a 86 Ford Ranger V6 4x2for $1500 and im gonna go pick it up sometime in the next 2 weeks. But the spare time got my brain a running and I've decided to make the perfect Bowfishing/Dogbox carrying truck. So far im probaly gonna paint it camo, make ita straight pipe and get some other various engine work done. Then get the camo seat covers and aGrizz original a Knife handle shift knob. AND MY FAVORITE THE SHARK JAW GRILL ORNAMENT But The reason I posted this was to see if anybody else has some wild ideas b/c this is just what ive always wanted to do too. I'll be sure to post pics as the project progresses. Thanks-Griz

Sorry about your station wagon. Glad you are okay.

I've had the Rust-belt Urban Camo truck. (rust, more rust and lots of grey road-grime)

Never a real camo'ed truck.

Take lots of pictures of your project and share them with us.

One thing for sure that you'll need on your truck .......... a HuntingNet sticker!
