So heres the pics i promised, as u can see it was not quite finished by the prev owner, and so it's up to me to get'r done.

heres where i first found it. It HAD 4x4 front fenders, but they belonged to another truck, so i didn't get those


It had a lot of junk in it, but most of it belonged to other trucks. Some of it belonged to this one. the gas tank was NOT for this truck, it already had one, but it WAS a mazda tank in good shape. didn't come with the truck either, lol.


It sits pretty low thanks to a body drop and some blocks in the back. havn't quite figured out wat he did to bring the front down, but i imagine i'll find out soon...


The hood and grill and bumpers etc were all removed but are around somewhere... i still have to get them.


I had to take the box off to get it home because it wasn't bolted on and i ran out of tie downs, so i couldn't just ratchet it on. I left it there and i'll get it later too. the fenders that are on it now are the ones that belonged to it. don't look as good i don't think so when i get it started i'll be looking for 4x4 fenders.


thats the front section of the box sittin on the frame... using it to cover my gas tank... that piece still needs to be sectioned.




Pulled the fenders off... they were just on for a few pics... I just had them sitting on there.




the Rad is inside the cab. I think it's toast.




I love my seats... they're out of a Firefly turbo... won't bolt right up, but they are so awesome i'm just gonna make up the brakets to make them fit.




Frames got a little rust on it but i should be able to clean it all off. in general I'm pretty happy with it (keep in mind some of wat you see is dirt... it was raining a lot when i got it.




So far, so good

how much of a bodydrop was done?

to my knowledge it's 3 1/4, but it could be less. that little piece of steel sitting on the front section of the box is the amount it was dropped because i believe it came out of the back section of the cab. havn't measured it yet, so it could be less. I'll try and measure it tonight if i can get to it.

looks like a good start. how much do you get it for?

Got a deal. Paid nothing for it, and shipping it home of course was at my expense.
I have to finish it though. can't sell it, thats a condition of getting it. NO SALE. She's mine to finish.
