Ryoken's 89 Crew Cab Tubebed build... aka Mutt....

I just assumed it all tasted that way. Don't get much fresh tuna in Nebraska . . . . . . . .

I know it may seem that way due to the nature of my mods. etc, but I am sooooo not like that.... how the Dungeon and my house look 1/2 the time would testify to that....

I respect the guy because he want's his stuff perfect, and I do mean perfect... way more respect than my idiot customers who just gas and go, but he does drive me nuts with his requests and expectations...

*Mutt shopping list for the week*

qrt of Marvel
fuel sender
Seafoam
order MSD dizzy and coil, if I can swing the coin...
gal of Aircraft Stripper
sand for blaster
gal of way cool red paint....

Why do you want to change the dizzy and that coild is new, or you want an MSD for better performance?
 
I'm a big fan of the quality of MSD dizzy's... if I'm gonna put the dizzy in, i may as well do their coil too.. keep the other one as a spare...

just came into a bit of coin today, so i may do that... otherwise, i'll just throw the used good one i have in..
 
I kinda dig the weathered look it has going on...

but apparently it's gonna happen quick, the hood is dictating that.. I'd suspect the whole cab will probably be painted by sept...

came into some found money today to the tune of a grand... $450 right out to Summit! :haha: toys this weekend.... :woot:
 
up the river from work... Barneget Bay is about a 1/4 mile down the river there... the rt 37 bridge to Seaside Ht's is down a bit on the left...

One thing has always confused me with this truck, whats up with the front bumper? I seem to remember you not having a body lift but the bumper makes it look like you do.
 
there's no body lift... yet... i will be throwing a 1" in at some point...

the bumper has that tilt thing going on... it's actually only on with the outer brackets.. Ice just sent me the main frame ones... when I get some down time, I'll install those and adjust it all..
 
funny thing is I probably haven't been to the Seaside boardwalk in 25 yrs.. :haha:

You should just show up in the Mutt to the jersey shore house and just park there so we can see you on TV :haha::haha:. You would have to let us know though cuz I hate that damm show :doah:
 
I can't say I haven't watched a few minutes here and there, it's like a train wreck, sometimes ya just gotta watch... :haha:


I'm annoyed with myself, instead of just stopping at my autobody supply place, I ordered a gal of Aircraft Stripper online... now I wont get it till after the weekend.... eh, maybe I'll stop and get another, I can always use the other down the road...

weekend plans... new dizzy, coil, etc and oil pump on sat...

strip, prime and trim old K5 hood, mount with fuel pressure gauge on sunday...
