Hey fellas, names Todd. I'm new to the mini trucks. I had a bunch of Hondas, muscle cars, and turbo volvos. I figured with a growing family and a house of our own I need a truck, so I got this 91 b2200 I traded straight across for my old civic. It has 133k and runs great but has seen far far far better days. Had a HUGE exhaust leak. (Due to it all being held together with tape) the left leaf springs are flat. (3" blocks on the right side only to compensate) the torsion bars need to be re adjusted, it needs almost all new sheet metal due to rust. I'll post pictures as soon as I can, of the truck and of the progress. So far I have fixed the exhaust, and the carb was adjusted like sh*t, so I mended that as well, also got a set of 15x6 Toyota steel wheels going on today.

Not too shabby. Whats ur plans?

So far the plans are to first make it run like it should. Then I'll fix all the suspension to where the fenders are level with the top of the tires. (Hopefully with all my leafs in tact because I do haul a lot) then ill start body work, getting new wheels and tires on it today so pictures of that to come very soon, after body work it'll be a weber/pacesetter with exhaust fabricated by yours truly, not sure what color to paint it or the wheels yet, I like old school, suggestions? Comments?

Good luck with bringing it back up to par.I however may suggest resizing your pics prior to posting.Just makes it easier to see and load when looking at the post.Not giving you the 3rd degree just a good tip.Welcome to the site and get that truck straightened out nice.
