That's a good lookin truck. I really like the paint style, because mine is like that. Are you going to paint it the same color? good luck, and have fun with it. David :c2:

Looks like a great project. Probably has no rust other than the surface rust from the sun.

are there any truck meets/good car shows in phx? i go to the pavillions and hang with SMC in tucson during the school year.

the plans are low budget, psuedo-rat rod.

basically keep it from catching on fire, lower it, rally wheels with black centers, and maybe headers, edelbrock egr intake, and a cam

There really isn't anything in phoenix anymore. We used to have a huge mini trucker meet over by ASU every saturday night, and there were all kinds of trucks, all different styles, and it was a blast, but ASU police decided to revoke our permit and shut it down.

Hopefully we get something going soon again though
