Next year will be for doing the body right.... then the next year will be an Air Ride year....

Re: New guy from South Central Pa....

Welcome to the board from the PA dude in Mississippi! Glad to see more of these trucks showing up. It's a wonder the PA salt lets anything live for very long! You got a nice looking truck to start on!

Re: New guy from South Central Pa....

Make sure you get some of that southwestern bondo.It doesn`t tend to rust as bad.
