only rust on the truck. (drivers side rocker)


i also got a set of ceramic coated headers. :D.


i ****ing hate my garage.


plans: nothing concrete yet. possibly bagging? i dunno. i want 22's for sure. considering an 8 lug conversion.

first things first though: install all the new trim and interior piece, clean engine bay, shave firewall, install engine and get it drivable. just so i can tear it all apart again.


any input on.... anything really. (paint, wheels, whatnot) all appreciated.

my only suggestions for ya would be to get the garage cleaned up, roll her outside and take more pics, roll'er back in and get BUSY!! ;)

seriously though, you have a good plan about getting her up and running 1st. theres days that i wish i had never tore mine all the way down. good luck man!
