It need inner and outer rockers, a small patch on the drivers 1/4 behind the wheel, heads rebuilt (smokes like a freight train for about ten min. after sitting a long time. I need to rebuild all the brakes. Caliper is locked up and might as well go through it.

For now I just want to get it back on the road but I think I will have the bed and rear frame blasted and maybe start to get ready for some paint. Probably back the same color as the front of the truck. I would really like to put a nice drop on it with the 295/50/15's that are on it now.

I have bigger dreams for it but small steps for now. Also I need to start working on the interior. Needs a new seat cover, carpet, headliner, and maybe a dash pad.

Good eye and glad you like it brotha. Hopefully it catches on. You'll need to remove the fenders from the truck to be able to install them. Unfortunately there's no room to stick your hand from any angle with the fenders installed.

I like those in the gray. I was looking for one around here. Actually thought about switching my interior over to gray but doubt I do it now.
