Re: New wheels, tires, and suspension!!!! pics inside!!!

thanks! as it is right now the truck hasn't (legally) been on the road in about a year. with summer just around the corner i'm considering putting insurance on her to cruise around in. it's killing me knowing that she's just sitting not getting shown off like she should be. have u guys ever dealt with this situation where in mid build you are stuck at a stand still collecting parts but is still driveable but not legal?

Good looking truck man! I like the yellow, and the TT2s. I have those on my ole S10. I bought a truck from Ninety-Six SC. How far is Six-Mile from Ninety-Six ? Just curious. ..

Re: New wheels, tires, and suspension!!!! pics inside!!!

ninety-six is about 90 miles from six-mile lol. and i appreciate it you guys!!!

Dad is going to pick up some parts for me today!!!! I found both front fenders, inner fenders, and core support for 250. the core support has only minor rust damage and the same with the passenger inner fender. my entire front passenger side i have on the truck now is ate up with rust.

Now all i'm lacking is a good solid tailgate, passenger door and a few patch panels!

then...i get to tear the ol' girl apart
