#DrgnBnz .... Bagging and Body dropping 66" Mercedes 200d to the rockers

[#DrgnBnz]

So this is been a longer term project, I have owned my 66" 200d for 5+ years and her name is Murphy as in Murphy's law "whatever can go wrong, will go wrong." she caught fire on me on the way home from buying her , her exhoust fell off driving over the Siskiyou pass, the alternator gave out on me 500+ miles from home , I have gone through 2 motors and also put her into the back of a semi after sliding 100 yard down a frozen off ramp

well out line of the project is build custom tube frame and body drop the Murphy over it
base of the frame will be an 87 Toyota pickup using airlift V2 and #2600 bags on all corners triangulating front LCA and 3 linking the rear axle
