More pics of sons truck
We purchased this truck in Georgia. The truck had never been repainted, it had the normal rust problems on the rocker panels and lower forward parts of the fenders. We removed the bed and front cap. This not a show truck by any means. This is my sons first truck but with our buget and resources we were kind of limited. We have done everything ourselves welding, painting, engine work. We removed everything before we painted it. I wish we could have done a frame off job. The truck runs and drives great with not issues yet. We are almost finished. Just give us your imput on his first ride...........later

Re: More pics of sons truck
I'd say that truck looks really good and an sharp looking paint job. I'd be proud to have accomplished all that by myself.
