Sweet, I'm in Colton.  You know anyone that wants to get rid of some front fenders and possibly an inner fender?

  looks like it got rolled somewhere along the line

damn dude your close,I'm in Fontucky....I mean Fontana. not sure if anyone is gettin rid of fenders. what are the specs on that thing?

Yeah, the P.O. got ran off the road and rolled.  The bed got trashed, the windshield exploded, the tie rod got bent, but other than that it's solid.  He also started cutting it up to buggy it out, but he only got the top of the doors chopped and the pass. side inner fender.  I'm planning on making the front end look look better and putting a flat bed on it.  I got a pair of chevy springs with it too, so that's in the plans also.

  too bad about the roll was it you or before you got it?

[flourman [OP]]

Yeah, it was like that when I bought it, but it fit my budget and I just plan on making it a trail beater that looks halfway decent.

Welcome,I'm in MoVal,but my parents are in Fontana,(YOTAon40s brother).PM me or him,maybe we can do some wheelin'.

[toybuilt]

looks like you have a good starting point on you truck. Nedd more pics

[flourman [OP]]

I'm all for some wheeling and soon!!!  All I need is a passenger side inner fender to make this thing a little more trail worthy.  If anyone has one here in SoCal, I'll take it off their hands!

[flourman [OP]]

Here's some more pics.  I got a windshield in yesterday and I'm waiting on some LED trailer lights for the tail lights.  I'm probably going to move the battery back against the firewall for now along with the fuse box and just finish cutting the inner fender out.  I think I'll pick up some cheap headlight assemblies and put them on the front so I can drive it around a bit.  The flat bed is going on hold, well at least the steel one.  I'm gonna bolt on some plywood for now.  It's killing me just having this thing sit, I'll drive it the four blocks to work.

Anyway, here's some more pics pimping the new windshield and showing off my chevy's and all of the other crap in the back of the 250

thats the fun stuff.

Look at the little flex ramp ,Good score on the highlift!
 Oy Yeah

[flourman [OP]]

The highlift wasn't a score on this buy, just the truck and the chevy's.  All of the other crap in the back of my pickup is just random stuff I keep in there because I don't have anywhere else to put it.  I already changed my mind on the flatbed.  I found one I like on this page, probably just going to copy it.
