Ok guys, after a bit of deliberation and some technical difficulties...we have a new off roader of the month!

For the month of May we have: Birddog1148!!

He has been a huge help with getting the new flag project going. He is a good contributor in the forum as well.

Congrats Birddog...

the back with the new tires on.

the front with the old rear tires on it. Notice how the top of the tires stick out? Is that cause the suspensun was at full droop all winter?

Hey Congrats on another win!

You've spent alot of time converting that purple bug. You've come up with alot of new ways of doing things.

I'll never forget your carb fix...

Or when you welded your cat to the front bumper...

Or making your son hold your offroad lights so you could see better...

Then when you got "sick" after off-roading with jeep guys...

And my all time favorite. Rudolf the red nosed roadkill...

Congrats and thanks for keeping my attention!

Congrats BirdDog!

So...who converted you from TOS, anyhow?

I remember following your beam build. Great work!

Thanks! I guess if I think really hard, Lotrat and Cooperbaja always had links to here on TOS and once I got here It just has a "Home-ier" feeling here, more positive, less negative.
