Re: i need some feed back on a new ride
Looks nice! Is it a Super Custom? That would be the Custom Deluxe equivalent,so some of that interior stuff was added,which only made it nicer. There was no Custom Sport.

Re: i need some feed back on a new ride
Hahaha...
Spirit, I was really interested in reading your story. But I needed what special-k needed in order to get it straight. And, more pics sure would be nice. It looks like a great truck.

Re: i need some feed back on a new ride
its all good spirit.. i understoof everyword and i can say its a good thing you have some patience cuase i would have been a bit pi$$ed off if i had to go thru all that crap to get a truck home......
hopefully its a simple fix on the short bed.. looks to be a really nice driver and sounds like a really good price (well up till it broke down 10miles down the road) take better pics ..... i actually really like the green/white. looks nice.. |

Re: i need some feed back on a new ride
It's actually Green and Cream, not Green and White. Does anyone know if this color was a factory color? Because the previous owner told me it was factory but I've never seen this color combo. (P.S. This was written by his son. :p)

Re: i need some feed back on a new ride
Sounds like you have a clogged fuel filter. Truck will run for a mile or so and suck enough crap into the filter to stop it up, so the truck dies. When fuel pump stops pumping, all the crud held onto the filter by the pump falls away. That is why you can restart the truck again and drive for another mile or so before it happens again. Replace your fuel filter(s).

Re: i need some feed back on a new ride
Has the truck been sitting for a while? Maybe some bad gas or varnished up in the carb? Did you put some fresh gas in it?
Good lookin truck man. I like the two tone paint. Mine's a stepper or I would paint mine two tone.

Re: i need some feed back on a new ride
I love it just the way it is, regardless of price.
Here's all I'd do. But that's just *my* style direction these days.

Sweet ride. Cool color combo as well. I like the lowered look as seen in the pic above.
