I got this truck a few years ago off of ebay. I plan to keep it nice and drive it on the street in the summer if things work out. These are when I washed it for the first time after we picked it up. High pressure and acid really cleaned it up and made the paint bright white. The truck looked like crap and was all dirty and faded when I picked it up. It looked like a new truck after we washed it up.

The previous owner bought the truck as a parts truck with front end damage from a collision with a deer.

With the used fiberglass fenders and used Rancho 3" lift springs. Maybe the 38s are a little too big for this one :ack:

I picked a flatbed up from a friend for $100, bought new 34" Super Swamper LTBs and last week got the fenders painted in exhange for a power steering pump and stock set of wheels and tires.

My motivation to keep working as it gets cold. It is cooling off fast around here. It was kinda warm today I was able to work in a sweatshirt at about 40 degrees.

DON'T DO IT MAN!!  Don't go from cool truck to potential mall crawler.

You can go through life being scared of the possible, or you can have a little fun and tease the inevitable.

Give a man venison, he'll eat for a day. Teach a man to hunt Blacktail, he'll be frustrated for life!

I want to but the cops are really strict around here. I don't think they would like them very much. I think it would be really cool on a set of 20" american racing telfon wheels but that is gonna be a lot of cash. I haven't really driven the truck yet since I have never got around to swapping motors.

Thanks. In a month or so I plan to start working on it again. I think it is gonna get a tube bumper with stinger, maybe some sliders and maybe some rear springs in the front.

Stay tuned for new pictures. The truck is getting painted right now. I plan to swap springs, hi-steer, and convert to power steering soon. I am also having custom beadlock rings cut. It should start taking shape soon.  :beerchug:
