Still have some small loose ends to tie up here and there. And of course the bumpers, tire carrier, and roof rack that Ill be building soon.

Im thinking its probably going to get an actual paint job sometime soon, either in the same dark blue type color, or OD green with the gallon of military humvee paint I have lying around.
 
Looks great. I was looking for a Traveler before I bought my 75 Scout II (I love the look of a lifted Traveler).

Thanks, believe it or not its still at stock height...the cut out fenders give the illusion it is lifted though :p

Ive always been a fan of the train of thought that keeping a vehicle as low as possible is always best. If articulation can still be had and the vehicles COG kept low, youve got a winning combo IMO. Of course once you get to a point youve got to go higher, but I just hate seeing vehicles lifted 5 feet in the air for no reason :flipoff2:

This is going to be more of an expedition truck than a crawler, so articulation isnt of paramount importance.
