Exclamation "Desperado" for a less ugly body! (Pics)

Picked up the "American Truck" body kit so I could get the Ram to put on a base ZZ chassis for my g/f as part of her b-day present since her dad has a Dodge Ram 1500 that she's driving most of the time now.

So, I had a Silverado body left over. (ick a Chebby, gotta be SOME way to make this look better!) It had a little lower CG than my Hummer body so I slapped it on my 49 mhz chassis, full suspension travel mod, softer springs, did a 71.98:1 gearbox. Climbs good, looks bad. Time for more mods!

Ripped off the ugly front bumper cover, made a Winch Bumper, it looked naked so it got a full brush guard. Rockers looked a little naked too, so they got Rock Sliders. I got to wondering who offroads with a tonnau cover, so I ripped that off too and scratch built a bed. Bed looked naked, it got a 4 point Rollbar. Decided that to show off my truck bed it should be done in white Rhino Liner.

Now I've just got to build a tiny little winch (show only), detail on some more Trail Rash and some mud. And maybe make some junk to have live in the bed like a Hi-Lift Jack or a Cooler or something... Any suggestions?

Ok, enough teasing, my truck
