Featured Zook with Bill Johnston

A Super Samurai!

Click through for a closer look...Click through for a closer look...Darryl Jones and Brian Cole are hard core 4×4 enthusiasts who wanted to build something that no one else had. They also wanted something that would represent the high quality of their shop while climbing just about anything put in front of it! They decided on the Samurai because they had previously wheeled one with great success! Another reason is because they really enjoy the ZookiMelt events and all the wonderful people who participate and put it on.

Zook’s are usually known as cute little vehicles that will go anywhere you point it! They loved the go anywhere part but they wanted to show people that it could also be the Monster Four Wheel Drive you’ve always wanted! They use the Monster Zooki to promote their business and just have good clean fun! They four wheel all over the country, constantly looking for new trails!   Click through for a closer look...Click through for a closer look... All the fabrication credit goes to Brian Cole, head fabricator at Custom Off Road, frankly because ‘he does everything‘. “Brian is truly a Blessing to our team!” says owner Darryl Jones. Thanks also goes out to “DOS” paint design, Columbia Coatings, and Eagle Machine for the great job they did!! Click through for a closer look...

The young lady in the photo to the left is Tracy. She is 5’10”, and judging by the height of the rear tire in the photo it looks like it could easily set any tire on the hood of most other rigs with the rest of the tires resting firmly on the ground. She is also Brian’s girlfriend and “HIGHLY OFF LIMITS!!!” says Darryl.  Built By:
