Thanks Jeramy. They're mine. I've had several square bodies. Currently own the black 87 and the red/white 86. Regret selling the white 87. Just lowered the 86 2/3 last week and dual exhaust, better tailgate band, radiator, starter, etc, etc.
Does it ever end?

Talking about a huge waste!!!!

Rally wheels (I'd love to have a set), full trim, it seem a truck worth saving.....or at least have the decency to use it's parts to keep others alive :dohh:

I just don't understand some folks these days....

That makes me sick. I would love to find a nice short bed and we got dumb people scrappin them like this. I mean it looks like it might be a good truck and even if not i bet there were a lot of good parts left.

Heres what i have to start with.. up here in Maine rust repair is a way of life.. im so jealous of what some of you guys get to start with... i started tearing it down today.. should be a rolling frame by this time next week, then some sand blasting and metal replacement and hopefully back together with a 5-7 drop on the stock rallys by June
