Somewhat is right! 
Yeah, put them all the way to the left, one on top of the other. An ideal size seems to be about 800x600, to fit the screen so people don't have to scroll over.
Definitely a nice truck!

My bad it took me 2 days to figure out how to post the pictures. I picked it up for 2K like it is. Presently doing a knuckle rebuild and already rebuilt the carb. I need a seat for it if anyone knows where I can get one.

upload your pictures to a free hosting service like photobucket.com
I have got 800 pics on there...
than scroll over your picture and you will see 4 sets of code either to the right or just under your picture. if you copy and paste the [IMG] into your post that will allow you to post your pics.

Nothing wrong with Montana, but you've just got waay better wheeling terrain down there. I lived in Utah for about 6 years and as far as that kind of stuff goes, Montana just doesn't compare. I like it up here for a lot of different reasons, but the landscape in Utah is pretty much unbeatable. I'll be driving through this weekend, I'll honk on my way past!
(actually I just remembered I'm taking I-15 the whole way so I won't get to go through Price..)

picked it up a few years ago off E-bay I had to put a engine in it, new brakes, tires, and clutch. It's a good little truck now.

this is how I found my 83. It had been sitting in a field for almost 5 years. 
, stripped and ready for the rebuild. 
, here's how it sits now, the interior is done
, and the doors are hung. the engine is still @ the machine shop. Hard to believe it ran, cracked head (4 cracks) DEEP gouges in the #1 cylinder and a 1/2 inch of MUD and rust in the oil pan. going .40 over, cam, header, and weber. when I recover from the engine build I'm going to regear it, 5.29's and aussies. then tires Q-78 Swampers.

Hey what color did you paint it? It looks really similar to my stock color, and I'll probably paint the cab this summer. Not going to deal with the bed yet since it's got some rust and I'm completely clueless (for now...) when it comes to paint & body work. I like the looks of that color, although I can't see it too well in the photo.
