I am from the Desert
I bought this truck in the San Bernardino Valley back in late 2011 it was a mess but minimal rust cab was pretty solid, had IL6 and a 3 speed with a $hitty floor shifter and a big ole hole in the floor for it. We got her running at the POs house so the transporter could drive it up on the trailer. A good friend and co worker lives in L A born in Mexico and whenever it was cold in the mornings in Moreno Valley(50-55 Degrees) he would be all bundled up with wool hat & gloves, i say to him Felipe YOU COLD

Re: I am from the Desert
looks like you are coming along real nice. Good find on the fenders. I am wrapping up on my electric work on the truck. Can't get brakes lights though. I will have to stay with it, george

Re: I am from the Desert
What are your plans for lowering the pickup, I'm guessing it will lay down on the rear axle when you air it out, do you plan on installing C-notch kit?
