I have owned this truck for 2.5 years and have put a lot of time and money into it. This truck does not have a straight body. It is a trail truck that has dents, scratches, and a little amount of rust. This thing will drive over just about anything you point it at. It is a very capable rig! Turns heads everywhere it goes! Just don't get to drive it much anymore.

Rear axle: 14 bolt FF, Detroit locker, disk brake conversion, 4:56 gears, DIY4X HD diff cover, DIY4X pinion guard

Engine: TBI 350 Fuel injected, Serpentine belt setup, New Hooker long tube headers, flowmaster mufflers

Bah! sad to see this one go. liked watching the whole buildup, hope to see you do another
 
Dang hate to see this one for sale. One of my favorite builds. At the same time I wish I could buy it for my own:doah:

Good luck with your sale

I did. As do many people from the Midwest, in order to get away from the rust.

If I win the redneck retirement fund I'd entertain you all by moving a truck from Nebraska to CA. Good luck with the sale.
 
Hopefully the next owner will continue my thread. I'd still really love to see what happens to it.
