Appreciate it guys. Truck is originally from the Bay area...Alameda actually. My dad bought it in 85 or so and was in Grass Valley, Calif (NE of Sacramento) since 94. While I was stationed at Ft. Huachuca, AZ, I got the truck...hence the plates. I had it transported to where I am stationed now...Augusta, GA. Only has 94,000 original miles so it really needed minimal work in comparison to trucks located elsewhere. Just surface rust.

Seats are out of an early/mid 90's Blazer II. 60/40 split with the center console. Junkyard = CHEAP. They still look new.

Thanks guys for the compliments. I've tried to ensure that the intent of being a truck is maintained. I think they call these Resto-Mods? Anyway, much appreciated!
