Really 85, formerly 81??? Dang, ...I've seen quite a few Silver, Tool Box Gray, black, Violet(that trippy blueish purple one?), even root beer brown(LOVE THAT ONE!)... but not alot of red ones. Cool, 81, .... maybe one day she will not elude you and you can SNAP A GOOD ONE OF HER! lol.

How are you, btw?

 

shes a nice clean red runner with stock decals and steel rims with a roof rack it looks great!!

im good how about you

 

I'm GR8, Secret Agent 85, AKA 81! ooops, lol. Anyway, yeah, just REALLY crazy around the holidays for me. Not much time for 'restorations and mods', hahaha. S'ok though, I've got a few people in the fam askin me, "Whatcha want for the Truck? " ..... hahaha.

 

Pic in the daytime of the Downey Grill guard, as promised. DANG it's lighter that in those other pics, lol. I think it looks fine, I'ma leave it! lol.

 

tell 'em to go to wab's site and pick something out

 

Hahaha... Actually, I'm hoping to get most of my IFS restore/mild-mod project covered between Christmas and my Birfday on Nov. 28th!(Big family, lol) That way, I can afford an Alarm and the first winter trip to the Sierra Hot Springs Trip done right...(Possible Cabin if it Blizzards out on me, lol)... with my own cabbage. hahaha. (don't like to go without having the CASH to pay for it... Not a big fan of DEBT! lol)

 

Just thought I'd post a present day Marine pic (it's me). I'm not at attention or anything, just had a fellow Marine snap a pic next to my company office real quick and thought I'd throw up a new Marine Corps pic. I swear I'm not as fat as I look there; it's the damn cammies.

Happy Birthday.



And one with a gun too

 

Merfal, Semper fi and Happy Birthday, THAN YOU.

 

OOrah, Merfal! Thank you, deeply, for your service!(Think I've told you that, once before, but I can't say it enough!)

PS> You don't look fat, brudda........ anyone aware of your training would KNOW you're not, anyhow! lol. Oh, and that pic of your cat in your Coat? hahahaha. Hilarious!

^^ looks like somebody needs a locker!

 

Some pictures from this week. Getting ready to go Geocaching, I was looking over the maps and checking the GPS.

Check out the "new" red doors, I just put them on a couple of weeks ago, got tired of missing with the electric windows, these are manual, they way any good beater should be!

1986 4x4, with "homemade" flatbed!
(You can just make out the CB antenna on the roof)

 

Geocaching always is a good time!

 

ooh i like that bumper!

 

more info on the flatbed, I kinda like it. Gives me an idea on redoing mine next summer. Looks like aluminum rails?

 

It has a rear spool. The front will get locked after the SAS. I need to get a set of real tires to.

 

It was on it when I got it. But the aluminum came from an old vans running boards! The bed itself has a standard steel frame and a wood deck. "I" bolts are installed in each corner of the bed to strap a four wheeler or lawn mower in place. Not super heavy duty, but it is not a big truck anyway...

I have found the flat bed to be very handy, more so than the rusted out hulk I had on my last truck.

 

cool. when you gonna sas it?

 

welllll first I have to put the motor back in it....then just find an axle. Goal is to have it running again by spring. wheel it for the summer, then next winter do the sas. But who knows.

 

Cool Truck, Seagull!

Cool Videos RERE!
