Im about a year into the d 50 scene now, and so far its been wicked being involved with the tiny truck. its awesome to work on, and even more fun to drive. But sadly its still in the slight project stage, and im having to use it as my daily driver. So hence im gaining more mileage and not to many parts or upgrades like i hoped. mostly due to the reason its been extremly difficult to find parts for it at junk yards because its becoming rare. any suggestions on where i could find any around the stl area?
Also this was a good way to show it off while there still around, and i enjoy checking everyone elses out too so post some pics on this thread!
My photos are from last spring and the truck pretty much looks the same still, but as i further along in my project ill post some more pics as well as engine shots while im gettin greasy!

its 4wd, 5 speed manual, with a 2.6L

Im looking for a tailgate, and possibly an engine swap? (its a tad rustic under the hood)

Also any suggestions about a common area of oil leakage? it looks like it could be coming out of the valve cover, head, or maybe even the timing cover.

So far my upgrades are, tubular bumpers (front and rear), Bash plate keeping my oil pan nice and safe, after market rims 15in and firestone tires.

I think the guy i got it off of put a small lift kit on it, but it looks like my front end sags to the ground abit. i dont know if others had this same look on theirs or if it might be that its from the weight on engine bumper bash plate, etc. also let me know on this?

but thanks for checking this thread out, leave some comments and pics, and ill throw out some new pics of what i get done soon!

Check out some pics on my profile
