    Russ Thompson Drop Trunk Kit

    I purchased and installed the kit from Russ. Then I decided I needed to re-work the trunk and remove the diagonal braces. I ended up making my own aluminum box to take advantage of the full drop trunk area.

    The kit is already assembled (silicone and riveted) with the 4 cuts for the 3/4 tubing. The only negative is that I cut a large oval in the bottom to access my fuel safe sending unit.

    Anyone interested? Prefer local to central Florida since its a decent size rectangular box now.

    I paid $128 shipped, how about $60?

    Oh yeah that's not too far. I grew up in Land O Lakes. Still go back there every now and then, could work something out.

    Feel free to pm me if you are headed out our way and still have this. We expected to be in Orlando once or twice in the last few weeks but it never worked out.
