My 83 Project.

[Texasupton1]

Well I have asked enough questions, I guess I better post on the project. This truck belonged to my Lt. Col. cousin in the Air Force. This truck has been in SC, AK, NC, Alabama, MS, and now TEXAS! It has been setting for 3 years in the bushes in Alabama. I told my cousin I wanted this truck if he ever sold it. I use to drive it back in the 90's when we lived at Andrews AFB. Well here is it $700 and it was all mine. I sold an AR15 to finance it. Traded 2 more AR's to get it running. All it needed was I new distributor, plugs, belts, hoses, thremostate, starter adjustment and all the smog crap pulled off and it fired right up. I have since replaced the carb, pulled the cat and put dual Thrush Welded, re-furbed the bed, sanded the outside rust off, new tank, new sending unit, new horn, radio, amp, eq, speakers, antenna, wiper blades, seat cover, new oil, new shocks, found some junk yard tires and rims, put some carpet in, a small console, a little diamond plate and it is a daily driver. 12 mpg so far.
