My late 82swb build.

[joe1982]

so after being on this forum i have finally decided to make my own build thread!!! that and i am finally out of the military so i have about a month to kill until i start school again!! haha well as some of you have seen, here are some pics of the truck when i first bought it, there was nothing flashy at all about it really. It just looked like the most solid truck at the time that i was searching for one.

I constantly wonder wether i overpaid for it not but i think it was an ok deal. It came with a deluxe turn key gm350 crate with only 26,000 miles!( originally it was a straight 6 with a 3speed) a new built TH400 built raptor tranny and a over all straight body. There was a light scrape on the passanger side door and the typical rust spot on my lower driver side door. the interior was ok, new upholstered bench seat, new dash panel and the door panels were in ok shape. the carpet was in horrible shape. I ended up paying just over 4300 for it.

suspension wise, it was shot and needed a lowering job bad. i dont know if the PO was planning on lowering it but the tires he was running were tiny. 235 /60's up front. on the plus side though, all the tires were brand spanking new and i had the warrenty for them.
