groundwater's 1987 Pickup Build-Up Thread

Hey everyone!

Just like to start by saying that im new to this site, and also the whole 'big truck' scene. Little different then low cars. I lost my brother last year, and was left with his 87' pickup that had been 7 years in the making so far. (probably has another 7 to go haha). Im stepping into unknown territories so im more or less looking for a few opinions, ideas and general pointers as to where to go. To start I need a parts truck because im lacking a lot of interior, running gear, steering units, and etc. Just thought i'd try and get myself into it, and let the fun begin. Will have many updates coming soon and be sure to post more pictures when i get the chance, Thanks guys !

Sorry for your loss man. At least he left you something that way you can always remember him. It seems like you have an awesome project ahead of you along with a lot of busted knuckles and foul language.
What are your plans for the truck? Is that a SBC?
