Yes ..Rainier is all out football over any other sport,,I played when I was in HS there too..long time ago..
..
Whats your thoughts on what truck you like the best for building what you did ,,straight axle or the one in the 88.? I know the ones I had were very popular ,,but not much room in them and the 88 has a bit more..

the 82 I bought new is on the right in this photo and the 83 on the left ,,AC in it and I just had to have it ..but like most of my trucks I sold them.

Very nice pickups you had, years ago I had an 82 and loved it. the older ones are to nice to build in to wheelers.
If, we had to do it again we would build a second or third gen. extend a cab
