82 longbed dd build
« on: Oct 15, 2013, 03:17:41 PM »
My mom bought this truck brand new in 1982 when moving to Colorado. Sold it to my Grandpa in 98. It was used as a farm truck for 15 years and now he sold it to me for $50! :o :o odometer seized at 151k and most likely as around 170k-200k  :dunno: everything was pretty much stock untill i got it.
Done so far-
rebuilt carb
rebuilt transfer case (was leaking)
new bumper
heated leather seats placed it for those cold morning  :driving:
got the speedometer/ odometer working
stereo installed
new front drive shaft
heatcore fixed
muffler put in
new windshield
im 17 so this will be my first build (learning experience, don't even know how to weld yet)
