-> My new truck

Its got a blown head gasket. A little body damage but overall in good shape. Its an 89 w/ a 22r and 4-spd. I think I'm just going to fix it and give it to my girlfriend.

What do you think?

And yes, I did tow it home with my truck. lol

I'm not sure what to think of this site anymore.
Anyway, I picked it up for $200. Has a title and everything. I'm going to fix it and give it to my gf. If she doesn't want it then I've got plans for it

Here are a couple more. This is probably the cleanest tail gate I have ever seen.

No sweat. But yeah this is my second truck like this. I like them. lol. It was cheap and the guy really needed money. So I gave him the money and picked up the truck.

The last pic is a mixture of oil and antifreeze due to a blown head gasket.

Better pics...





No mirror???

I was kidding about hiding.

Sounds like a fun project. Just make sure when you give it to the GF you put your name down as the lien holder so you can repo it if she leaves.

22rs were available in 2wd until '91 I believe, and available in special order on 2wd and 4wd until the mid-90s I have heard.
