What's up everyone..... I just brought a 87 regular cab as a kick around truck to keep some miles off my tow pig (and save fuel). It's lowered with some blocks and turned bars in the front, got a 1.8 block with the 2.0 head that needs some tuning, hard cover, roll pan and port from the bed to the cab for a sub box that's in the bed. It's also got a shit ton of frame rust that I need to fix. I say I'm just going to get it running right and drive the piss out of it but I've got a feeling it'll end up body dropped and repainted sitting next to my S-10 that's done.

Don't know to much about it. I was told that it came out of a 93 Miata. A friend of mine got the truck on trade for some bag parts because the guy couldn't get it running. He got the 2.0 head on it and got it running........then found an extra cab he wanted so I picked it up from him. I should be doing some work on it this weekend and I'll try and get some more pictures of everything.
