87 B2200 reg cab {project:black magic}

i thought i would start a project thread ive made a little progress so far mostly little things but progress nonetheless I bought my 87 regular cab short bed 2wd B2200 for a good price.
and i scored the wheels for $50.00 from a friend who needed the money and had too many projects so ive taken it on and it will soon be my daily!





this is what i did today



i will post more pictures later its too dark now

Nice work on those wheels! Is the name an indication of hydraulics in the future or am I over analyzing it?

nope no hydros lol its kind of an inside thing my friend she likes to name cars and trucks she named it "Black Magic" and my fullsize chevy "White Chocolate". But the B2200 is getting static right now. Plus the mazda has an 8 ball shift knob so i guess thats where it came from hahaha

Wish you were closer to me i have mint doors that i am selling

yeah me too i need doors and 4x4 metal in time but i really need tires and carb work it wont idle it may just need adjusting i have to keep my foot on the gas or it will bog down and cut off.

so a quick little update i should be getting tires soon within the next two weeks then i will start the drop but here is what i did today cause it rained and i didnt have to work.

i got a new almost flawless tailgate for free!



made a ghetto shift boot while messing around haha



and just generally took more pictures

looks like a good start! (:

yeah man not a bad start at all...keep us posted

so here the little progree ive made

i washed the truck and put some color back on it







AND! i put my new tail gate on!

8 ball and crown -- good combo
