I call it Black Phoenix, because its black (obviously) and because I rescued it from a junkyard in Phoenixville, PA, and rebuilt it. The name sounded appropriate. I ll add a before and an after pics.

So far my mods are the following...
(Armor)

Gas tank skid plate
Rear hitch receiver
Cargo window guards
Homemade 2x6 transmission crossmember
HD Off-road frame stiffeners

(Engine/drivetrain)
Upgraded battery cables (2awg)
Cowl snorkel
Tranny oil cooler and temp gauge

Guys, I can't stress this enough:

I make a Calendar out of the pictures that you supply after winning each month's COTM competition. I print these pictures on a full size sheet of paper. If these pictures are low resolution they look awful when they are printed. People don't want awful looking Calendars. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE make some sort of attempt to get good quality, high resolution pictures for me to use in the Calendar. I'm not asking you to go out and pay for a $1,200 camera or a $500 photo shoot. All I ask is that you use a decent modern digital camera from this decade. Instead of saving images off of facebook and sending them to me I need images DIRECTLY from the camera.

Every year I deal with horrible images. Because of this, the rules have changed. If the winner can not supply me with decent quality pictures within 1 week of the poll closing the winner will be disqualified and the month will go to the runner up.



We'll start this thing a little early since we already have 5 entries.

Sorry, the poll is not in the correct order. I'm sure you can figure it out.

K, go.

I came here with the thought of voting for the lowest COG build, but couldn't not vote for Unleashed. Badass rig.
