johnboys 84
figured i would share some pics of my truck, its a 84 model with a little bit of history, was built back in the early 90s ( so im told) 3/5 drop, rally wheels, 2 tone paint, and tuneport injected motor from a vette or camaro. its been garage kept until it was sold about 10 year ago (give or take), now the clear is peelin in spots from neglect and it has some rust but its surface rust so easy fix,the guy i got it from put a phantom grille with crystal head lights, new t350 trans with 3500 stall,and he started redoin the interior from tan to black with billet trim.
my plans are to airbag it on 22s finish the interior and cruise it and save up for body work and paint it a different color |

The paint might be a little rough around the edges, but it still looks sharp. Those new wheels set it off just right.

Re: johnboys 84
I kinda like it. The 2 tone white & yellow works for it.

Re: johnboys 84
I like the paint also. It's different and pretty cool that you found a piece of 80's history especially with the engine swap.

Re: johnboys 84
Those rims made a nice difference. If all have to do is some interior work, that will make a nice driver.
