I have a 79 4x4..its 100% built not bought..its all go no show..i built it to take out and have fun in the woods in and thats what i use it for...i didnt waste money on stuff i didnt need like shiney paint..fancy chrome stuff...body repair.
I also have a 01 zr2 s10 that was bought not built..but i also take that out in the woods just like the old 79. why have 4x4 if your not going to use it..it costs more upfront..cost more on gas..cost more on repair. I actually got the zr2 completely stuck just on the test drive before i bought it...i knew i was going to buy a 4x4 to use not to just look at. Do the truck justice and use it for what it was meant for
