Thought I'd finally post some recent pics of my Dawg on here. Got big plans for her...no bags...but definitely gettin a bit lower and will do some body mods, etc.



[edit] I removed the super huge pic and put up an original from my cardomain site [edit]
Future plans:

Lower after removing bumpstop brackets
Drop Shox
Custom center console
Custom door panels
Some red under the hood, and some cleaning
Reroute exhaust
Tilt bed
Chrome bumper, grille, some billet in there
New sub enclosure
New buckets
Shave handles on doors
Shave antenna, emblems
Other ideas to come for sure

it's an 89 SE-5. Bought for $2500 w/125k miles. Runs great, though the eltric choke went out a bit ago, but it still cranks rather easy even when temps in the 20's. I've only had to replace the valve cover gasket since I've had it...cuz it leaked.

Interior was in real good shape too. It does have some hail dents on the roof and hood, but barely noticable, and I'll be getting a different hood one day anyway.

I saw your pics Wood, you gotta good one too.

Thanks for the kind words

Should have my new chrome bumper and grille tomorrow. Hope to have installed in the afternoon, then I'll post it up. I didn't get the "full" chrome grille, I got the one that just has the outer edges chromed, which for one I think is neat, and 2 the dude get's "factory" parts cheap as heck, so I was going with what he could get me Whole deal should only cost me about $40, and only a week's wait simply cuz he didn't have enough parts ordered to meet the minimum order of $75. I can't wait!

One day, after playing with the old grille, I may add some billet to it or something nice. But first I'll practice mocking up the old one

Got my grille and bumper for $65 and got them on last night. Here's a pic, (will get a better pic soon)



And, I changed the bulbs in my instrument panel to red, and I love the look! I'm getting the tach panel sometime this week to swap out, and I'm going to cut out the top where it covers the clear stuff to allow that to continue to shine through like this pic shows. I will get a night pic sometime, that's when it looks best...it's looks awesome at night!



I plan on doing the gauges using the white sticker paper and creating a design that will really play off the red color.
