dirtbagging [part one C].

Fix simple things, like instead of some hack found on Youtube to keep the rear window open - just Google the factory model # of the lifts and spend twenty bucks at Amazon to get a new pair.





The lock was a bit more ($50), but probably the same price as taking it to a locksmith and having a key made (actually, I have no idea how much a locksmith would cost).

dirtbagging [part one A].

Have old beater pickup (preferably late 80s/early 90s Toyota)... check.

Find old canopy that a) perfectly fits it (even if it'll need some parts which, spoiler alert, will be part two) and b) offers elevated headroom... check (thanks to some guy K found selling one on offerupnow).




And... already returning, loaded with gear from a weekend adventure in the North Cascades...


Part two will include replacing and adding some parts before building out the bed to let us dirtbag for real... at last!
