Bought this 81 a few months ago. Needs, well everything, will be a long build. It's getting a complete resto-mod.

Started out like this:

Then it got to this point:

Look how rusty there fenders are on the inside!

Now sitting at this stage:

Currently taking the cab off to POR-15 the entire frame, redo the motor and fix the rockers on the cab.

Somebody welded the hitch to the frame and the bumper, grrrrrrr.

1 good thing on the truck, yup only 100,000 original miles on a 31 year old truck.

Seems like it's a pretty good start. Might sound odd but I like the wheels.

I really like the wheels, they look better on square body's then then what they originally came on! They are getting re chromed and going back on when I'm done. With the addition of center caps of course.
