well I've been asking stupid questions for awhile now and I thought I should show your guys what I've been up too.


I left the welds for the quarters low so I could fill them. ( the passenger side was repaired some time ago, and they used way to much filler, so I did what I could with the quarter )
this is my first attempt:o, although I've been doing it in my head for the last 5 year:wink1:. I'll put more in here. soon

this is after the rust repair.

plans are to put 33x10.5's on 15x8 10 slot rally's
mild lift if needed, just 2 inch block in rear and longer shackles up front.
ne carpet , windshield and paint.

The front bumper is Texas HUGE! it makes for a nice step while working on the engine.

nice dude!!! lookin great!

now lets see your skill at the paintgun!
 
I will soon, I am booked with other stuff to do for the next 4 weekends, but I'll be working on it in spirit!!:)
 
Texas style front bumper? well i don't reckon you think we all be talking like thiz? lol. now that would have to be biggest "Texas" bumper i've ever seen. cool little project & looks like you have a lot of work ahead of you. and forget your plans, worry about your project :)
 
I bought the truck for $500:eek1: 7 years ago from a guy who moved to Minnesota from Texas, it had only been in MN for a year when I bought it and it has never been out of the shed for more than 10 hours at a time. ( I took the top off right after buying it, its never been on since:bow: )

They aren't so much plans as its a list of stuff I have waiting for it. I have the wheels, Heated seat pads/wirings for the buckets and the bench seat, also have door skins and door bottoms for both doors, and other stuff I've been collecting over the last 5 or 6 years :rolleyes:.

Thanks for the good word !!
