I just couldn't stand it. I stripped down the bumpers to give them a fresh coat of white. The rear one was already painted primer grey. I wanted to paint it, so I did the front to as well. I'm trying not to refinish much on the truck. Keeping it as OG as I can

Back and front glass installed. She's ready to drive again! Fuel pump was bad this morning though. Had to change it before she'd drive to far. Lol

Thank you. I think it's just about finished. I need to get some tires on it soon. I will probably do 15x8 for the rear to give it more attitude. I will post some better pictures of it soon

THANK YOU. I did get some 4 nub wheels put on the front too, so I can add some disk brakes.

Where did you get the rubber floor mat from? Looks great.
