We got a call from a gentleman in California who found a Jeep on eBay that we had built a while back, the Black Ops Jeep. He wanted to verify all the details in the listing, since it already had an impressive list of upgrades.

After finalizing the deal to buy the Jeep, it was delivered to the Spyder OffRoad shop for another round of modifications, including a 5.7 Hemi VVT  putting out 405HP.

Once complete, it was loaded into the Spyder enclosed trailer and personally delivered to the customer in California.

Blue Brute from Dangerous Drives TV Show

Saturday, September 10th, 2011

This is one of the early Brute conversions done by AEV, and still widely recognized as the nicest one ever built.

Originally built to go on the 2007 Ultimate Adventure and was used as a show piece for AEV for a couple years.

In 2009 it was stripped to the frame and completely rebuilt just in time for the ’09 SEMA show, where it was on display in the Optima Battery booth.

In December 2009 it was filmed in Moab, Utah for episode 12 of Dangerous Drives, which aired on the SPEED channel March 24, 2010. You can watch the full show from the link below. It was driven by Dave Yegge, the former Chrysler engineer who designed the frame and suspension for the TJ and JK, and is responsible for Jeep releasing the Rubicon model. Dave is currently working for AEV and helped develop their suspension lift systems.

It was sold and relocated to its new home in Tupelo, MS in April 2010.

For the 2011 Easter Jeep Safari, Spyder OffRoad hauled it to Moab, Utah where it performed flawlessly on the toughest trails out there. It was featured on the cover and had a 5 page spread in the Moab Travel Guide magazine, given away in every hotel, restaurant, and news stand in town that week.

This is an extremely well built Jeep that turns heads everywhere it goes. It is simply exhilarating to drive.

Pinkie

Wednesday, July 20th, 2011

Pinkie – owned by Clyde Bynum of Spyder OffRoad

After 3 years of punishment, Clyde’s JK was in need of more than just a few repairs. It was time for a complete rebuild. Clyde has been known for building spectacularly cool Jeeps/trucks/SUVs/hot rods for 2 decades. You should know that a guy who has over 20 automotive magazine features to his credit and runs a 4×4 shop has got to have an eye-popping Jeep.

After years of building amazing Jeeps, Clyde wanted, and deserved, only the best parts available on his rig. Quality parts alone wasn’t enough though. It had to turn heads everywhere it went.

If you’re going to paint a Jeep pink, it’s got to be the perfect pink, so a trip to Toys R Us to get an actual Barbie car was the first stop. Then straight to the paint store for computer color-matched Valspar. Everything that was Rescue Green was painted pink. Everything that was black was painted white.

A whole lot of hours later, this is the result.

Cadillac Sand Rail

Sunday, July 10th, 2011

 

 

This blown Caddy Northstar engine powered sand rail came into the shop for repairs.

The 750HP engine could launch it higher in the air than the motor mounts could handle.

We got the motor mounts fixed and it was back out in the dunes in no time.
