I'm not sure yet 100% for sure. My thinking is build some sort of wedge back for it to be able to haul a car or truck on. I'm leaning towards hot rod black body with gloss black wheels and bumper, grill etc. It currently has 16's on it but I have a big Meritor axle that has 19.5's on it. I though about putting this axle in the rear with air ride since it has 3:31 gears, and putting a 19.5 up front as well. It depends how it sits I guess. I had envisioned dropping the suspension to help load a car but we'll see how that all plays out.

I was gong to do the same thing until I started thinking about where I was going to park it and leave it when it wasn't in use. I decided to do the tow truck looking bed with a fifth wheel hitch instead. The plan was to build an old school looking fifth wheel trailer that I could leave anywhere without fear of vandals or theft.
