Restoring moms truck
This truck was my moms first vehicle and after setting in the back yard since 92' I figured it was time to make it a project. Heres a pic of the day I drug it to my house and a pic of how she sits now.

Wow - what happened!!
![]() ![]() Very cool truck, always love stuff with a family history. Looked really clean to begin with. What are your plans, stock restore, or a bunch of changes?
