newb with pics
I come from the Lone Star State, Houston. Just picked up my 86 a little over a week ago. Got the new engine installed last week, now I'm just waiting on getting my exhaust done. Pretty good condition of the truck has some minor issues that I'm not to concerned about, I'll get them fixed in time.
Pic the day I towed it home.  How is sits as of yesterday.

Re: newb with pics
So far what I vision is......
A 3/5 drop, possibly a 4/6. Sticking with the rally wheels, but plan on buying a set of 15x10 rallys to slap on the rear, I came across a pair on ebay. I'm thinking some traditional colored flames(red, orange, yellow,white) sprayed in candy, pearl, or metallic paint over a suede/flat black paint. Interior wise nothing fancy just something clean. And some good tunes!!!! |

Nice, clean truck.
My '73 came with those same wheels... I also ditched them for 8" rallies. |
