Toyota 83 Custom Cab

I'm seventeen and for my first truck I got an 83 custom cab. To get it looking descent enough for school my friend painted it for 800 dollars in the color arctic white. I think it looks alright and runs good too but their still is a lot of work to do inside and outside. I can hopefully get help on this forum. Hope you guys enjoy!

Post some pics of your interior. There are some ways of getting an interior done up that are cheap and reasonble and looks nice.

Me and my dad swapped out the original bed with this cleaner one. This one if I remember had no visible rust and I sprayed it with bed liner and whala.
