restored back to original pics
 
This may not even fly, but I'm going to restore my truck back as close to the original as possible. I was wondering if we could get a thread started with pics of trucks that have been restored or preserved as they were when they come off the show room floor...or close. I think this might be a neat thing to see if it goes. Lets see what happens.

Here are some pics that I saved from an old ebay add. Mine is a very similar short bed that I began to restore back to original, but the hot rodder came out in me, and it now has a few mods.

Cool idea; I look forward to the pics!

I'm kind of in that middle ground of "restification" (restoration + modification). I like the factory look and try to use factory parts wherever I can, but if there's a genuinely better way to do something I modify.

It's not the best pic and the truck doesn't belong to me, but the blue/white Cheyenne Super is about as clean and stock as they get. If it was mine I think I would have to alter the ride height a smidge and add some new rollers to it. I even think it would look good with those factory caps on some wider wheels.
