85 short bed Finally Getting started

Hey guys I'm pretty new to this forum and thought i would share my project with you.

I bought this truck about a year ago, i haven't done much to it because i bought a house around the same time....Ive been broke....Just recently i sold my autocross car so i had some money to throw at the truck. I replaced the front grill, new exhaust 2.5 drop spindles and a flip kit in the rear. bought the wheels and i have another bed for it, a tree fell on this one and the previous owner just put bondo over the crushed spot. I also just put in a new starter and a heat shield because the headers were cooking the starter. Anyway this truck has a long way to go, but here are some pics
