take that puppy to a car show!

matt92yota

haha its ran across my mind a few times, maybe i just might...just gotta figure out when the next one is

john4wd

You did a great job on it, take it to one and see what happens, my 97 2-door Jeep Cherokee, I took to a car show and got 3rd place for 4x4's out of 5 that were there, I sold it a little while later :{ and in late 80's and early 90's I took my low rider B2200 to car shows, never placed, but had a blast :}

Take it in the spring and summer and I swear you'll have fun :}

i have a bit of bad news, that surprise i was talking about got stolen
it was a camper shell that was on my dads old 83 longbed pickup, i was going to attempt to "bob" it to make it fit but oh well i suppose...I guess i will be putting my rollbar back in and welding a mount on it for my cb antenna so i can finally use that again...

john4wd

bummer for you about the topper, but I think it looks awesome without :} I got rid of mine and don't regret it :}

matt92yota

yeah the only reason i wanted the topper was for when hunting season is in so i would have a place to put my guns and gear in to clear up space in the cab for a passenger

john4wd

How about a hard lockable tonneau cover, I've been thinking about getting one, if one pops up on craigslist, I'm on it like the a pitbull :}LOL

matt92yota

i might have to look into those, thanks for a great idea

john4wd

$80 bucks is a good price for a full cluster if it's free shipping and if it's from a 22R-E donor truck and it's an electric speedo/no-cable truck and not damaged, and get lots of pics all around, I've had to order items from dealer and e-bay for parts, just sometimes you have too, I know it sucks!!!! I just shelled out $80 bucks for a dash part I couldn't find a second time after first piece I found cracked because it was brittle from UV damage, sucked! but I had to bite the bullet!!!! Good Luck buddy!!!!

matt92yota

well i havent been able to do much since my last update due to crappy weather and family "get-togethers" lol but i have managed to get my roll bar painted and a new exhaust put on today, I'll put up pics tomorrow. And i also installed some gauges in my dads camaro for his christmas present:

There is a guy that has, what looks to be, the same exact roll bar on craigslist. I was debating on going to buy it, but now I freaking have to because of how awesome it looks in your truck.

GO BUY THAT ROLL BAR SIR lol.

If i ever saw one around here i would have to consider it cause ur truck sports one well matt. I saw that mega spring what size whip are you running? I ran a spring like that on my ten, on my old trucks but the way i mounted mine on my tool box i cant run my mega spring/whip antenna n dont wanna drill more holes in my box so i run 3 foot firestik.

matt92yota

thanks man, did you buy it? when i clicked on the link it said that the post was deleted...

matt92yota

thanks man, im running a 102" whip

93Xtra-Cab

No, I emailed the guy. Hasn't emailed me back. I just clicked on it and it worked. So, hopefully he still has it
