Picked this up on Thanksgiving Day. Little rough around the edges but I'm liking it. Doing a few little tweaks to make sure all is good and plan to drive everyday.

here is the day 1 pics

didnt really like the rattle can green paint, so broke out the 400 grit and sanded it away and ended up with some green and some sorta patina look. i think it looks much better.

Next steps: I need to get a set of tires!!!! I like the black wall look, so I ask...what tire would you all recommend? 235-75-15 will be the size....just looking for a good tire that will fit the look. I will be using the 15x8 Truck Rally wheels...just need some new tread....THOUGHTS/SUGGESTIONS?

I will get more pictures once I get new tires put on of the bed/interior.
