Newbies ebay find

Hey all, just joined yesterday. I have seen many fine trucks on this site and thought I would add my new find. It is an 85 SERRIA CLASSIC 4x4 if you couldn't tell by my screen name. I stumbled upon it on ebay several weeks ago. 350 crate motor, 700R4 tranny, pretty much a stock truck. I plan on leaving it that way at least for a while. Hope this works.

Welcome to the forum 85SERRIACLASSIC. It looks like Ebay provided you with a really nice truck. Stick around and enjoy the company, but beware. The modification bug will bite you if your not careful...

Not really sure, seat was in the truck when I bought it. I believe that it is out of a '93.

Thanks agian for the reply and i also thought it was from a newer truck. if you have a chance could you tell me if it has custom brackets for that seat or if they look custem maybe snap a pic?? i would be really thankful as i am trying to put a new seat in mine and would love to use a newer body style seat if i could figure out the bracket set up.

Well thanks for the help and again
WELCOME

Re: Newbies ebay find

Yep, you guys were right. It didn't stay this way for very long. I found a set of stock aluminum wheels and had them put on last week. Oh well, not exactly what you guys were talking about but I think it looks a hell of a lot better with the stockers on it for now.

Yes, that is EXACTLY what they were talking about?!? It starts innocently enough; "I'll just put some stock rims on it, you know, to give it the stock look." Then some other little item will come up and next thing you know you got the bed off replacing and repainting everything!*

*Please refer to N2TRUX and see what happens when your engine has a little blow-by and next thing you know you have a ram-jet FI 350, new OD tranny and under hood detail work to rival any show car.

There areworse things you be doing with your paychecks though...
