I prefer the camper style for thar year.
Keeps it year correct. Not that it matters much but the Ford mirrors definitely got to go!

I love that truck, don't change anything. The hub caps look great. The height from fender to top of tire looks the same front and back in that last picture.

Ha thank you. I think its pretty cool. Bout the only changes left are new locking hubs, exhaust, fix the brakes.
 
Took today off work. Swapped out the broken and leaking exhaust manifolds for new summit headers. Actually super impressed with the fit and flanges on them, especially for $150! Also removed the crappy mirrors and installed a set of GM camper mirrors. Also swapped the tow hooks on the hickey grille guard to the outside so you can actually use them.

Damn!! Big improvement with subtle changes. Nice!
 
dumps under the bed = LOUD in cab and lots of droan sound. . . try it see what you think but years ago i did this and later added just a tail pipe to the back bumper and HUGE change in the incab sound levels and more fun to drive after .

Yup, had more than a few. This one mostly sits so cheap and quick it was.
