Whew......that's impressive. I'm not going to go that far, but it's nice to see what's possible. With mine, there's so much resto work to the frame and body that would need to be done, it would be easier and cheaper to find another chassis. Once I get some pics up, you'll see what I mean. But, you're truck is looking good. Thanks for the inspiration and encouragement.

It's not that I don't like the 2nd gen I do...I have a parts truck to do the 5spd swap...I don't intend on parting with it. I do like the lighter and the topless option of the 1st though.
Best of luck to ya and I'll be standing by to tease ya and toss random banter in to keep ya moving. As 92_Toy how well I can do this.

Go ahead....tease and banter. Maybe we'll have an oil cap offspring thread out of all of this....

Well, I got the frame all welded up. It's kinda basic looking.....nothing fancy, but for $90 for a full day of labor it'll work!!! I still have to figure out why the new/used LSPV is not allowing fluid to the rear wheel cylinders, put the pass. side shock back on, do some frame painting, and a few other details before it'll be driveable, though.
I got pics taken of the before and after. I'll get them up soon.
