Next I need to modify my Budbuilt to fit with the Addicted and replace my auto hubs with the manuals from Wabbit! Then, hopefully, rework the interior.

 

This rig I believe was for sale or still is on ebay, and he's asking quite a pretty penny, but its probably worth it.

 

Oh I like the red interiors. They are so funky and would probably deter me from buying the truck. Got any interior pics? lolol

 

I don't actually, probably out of embarrasment, but the truck has zero rust, and the paint still shines. It's worth it to have everything else to put up with the red, but hey, I guess it's different. Plus everything works and the damn thing is loaded with all the bells and whistles minus the sunroof.

 

lol. First time I saw one with red interior my jaw dropped. I wonder if it looked that bad brand new? Youd have to be crazy to order that. lol

 

I will have to say, YES. BUT, now that the sun has gotten a hold of some of the interior it's actually pink in some spots.

Please, hold back your jealousy.

 

I think your the one who needs to hold back the jealousy cuz my '82 is pink (faded red) on the OUTSIDE. lolol
