New "sorta" build

After months of stalking this site, I searched and searched for a truck that I could use as a daily driver. I was lucky enough to find one on CL for $700! 64 LWB, SBW, 3 on the tree!!!! It had no brakes but it started and ran, so I snagged it up!!!! This really isn't a build thread as I am a full time student, but it is, and has been my DD for the last month or so!!!

Since picking it up in October, I have replaced all the brake lines, master cylinder, oil change, new air filter, new wheel bearings......

Re: New "sorta" build

Is this it? Copy and paste the IMG code from PB, don't use this . code should look like this http://i218.photobucket.com/albums/c...untitled-1.jpg with IMG at each end. It will all be automatic if you copy and paste. Hope it helps.

Re: New "sorta" build

I removed the rear springs and cut a coil and a half out of the front. This is just temporary. I don plan on a static drop. The plan is to keep her fairly original, or "era correct" with the stance as the exception.

Here is the before and now....
