Ok guys, i first purchased this truck last summer in July/Aug. and have since done some stuff to somewhat start the resoration part of the build. When i first got it home i worked some ofthe bugs out of the engine since it hadnt run in 4 to 5 yrs. Replaced plugs, wires, cap, rotor, fuel filter and filled tank with fresh fuel as well as a can of sea foam.

After i did all that i began to strip/wire wheel all the paint off the body and see what was hidden underneath. I found a lot of hidden bondo and more rust. I also started pulling the interior out and glass out to eventually get that all replaced. I also ordered some interior pieces for after the build. I got a Highliner headliner, door panels, sun visors, and a seal/weathersrtipping kit for glass and doors.

I recently moved it to a storage facility and i am beginning to replace body panels, starting with fenders and doors and possibly a hood and full bed if i can find one.



I will have pictures avail. as soon as i get a camera to use!
