the 84 scotty plans

soo, what do you guys think i sould go with after i get my truck smoothed out and re-painted. i want to take off the scottsdale black and chrome molding that runs along the lower parts, but i still want to have the chrome molding that lines the fenders. tell me what u think. BTW it will still be painted the original light blue.

I am also thinking of putting the solid chrome molding but just give me some feedback. i will have the chrome molding that goes around the windsheild. i just think that taking off the body molding will make it look smoother.

Here are my plans. im not going to lower it (i like the way it sits, for now). it will have some nice and bright 20'' tourq thrust II's all around. the original somewhat flaked light blue. as far as the engine goes, basically whatever money i have left will go into savings for a 350 or lt1 (the 305 sucks, it has 56000 original miles but still doesnt pull at all, but runs great).

i just want a nice and clean looking truck, nothing really show car quality because it will be my daily driver, but just nice.

i have a budget of about 6000. im doing the bodywork myself. getting it preped, primed, and painted would be 3ish. wheels are 2500. and 500 to get new bumpers and molding. then whatever i have left over (if any) will go into the bank for the engine.
