Dam that thing looks sweet.

 

It most definitly is. I was kinda jealous when he brought it home. I've always wanted a first gen truck and for a reasonable price like that.

 

like the new paint man, looks good. good deal for your buddy too. i wanna see pics of the tailgate on the truck!

 

looking awesome, love how the tailgate turned out. jelous of your buddies truck.

 

Cmonnnnnnn, your Hangover has to be done by now, right? hahahaha. Jk, and hey, just wanna see the Red Beast out in the sun, soakin up some rays and show off the new 'Designs', homie!

 

Thanks man. I am super jealous of my buddies truck but thats how it usually goes haha. Pics tomorrow for sure

Thanks Ethan. It does look amazing on the truck.

Haha I didn't get a hangover lmao. That was my buddy drinkin. I only had one shot. Im the whacky with HUUUUGE goatee. I had a job interview today so no chances for pics but definitly, for sure tomorrow.

No, I know which one you were, lol.... I just figured you were partying together, lol. Cool, .....btw, ...FLAMES! lol. sounds pretty good at idle, man.

 

Wasn't sure lmao haha. I do party but not usually on a weekday. I love that sound. Flames are awesome, its the first time I have seen them outta the 85. When we pulled it out of the shop I saw flashes under the bed and immediatley thought to myself, "awesome". Its a header with a 24" glasspack and straight out to above the rear housing. No cat or muffler restrictions (above 9000 ft and unincorporated Colorado). I want to do that with mine but I have bigger stuff that needs tending to first. My buddies 84 use to shoot 4 foot flames out of his exhaust stack. It was one helluva show an night.

 

As per your requsests I took a pic of the tailgate on the truck out in the sun!! Sotty it took so long, I been kinda busy.

 

Looks great, man!

 

Hell yeah I have to find somewhere else to put the lic plate though. It takes away from the whole thing if you ask me

 

yea, i was gonna say. you put all that work in just to cover it up

maybe put it on the differential? that'd be unique

 

it wouldn't be a prob here in CA, ....can't drive w/out a bumper AND LICENSE LIGHT... w/out risking a fat ticket, lol. Can't put it in the Back window, Zach?

 

Thats one helluva good idea. I might have to try that and of they don't like it go with Chef's idea.

We aren't suppoda drive round here without a bumper or lic plate light either, but they don't really enforce it too hard. They do kind of flip around here with it in the back window but they can all they want bahahahaha. Needless to say they don't really like me around here.

 

if you do try it, post up a pic, i'd at least like to see what it looks like on your truck...

also, another spot might be low on the bottom right corner of the tailgate, if the po-po don't like any other location

 

looking good, hey if u want a first gen truck there's a guy in the springs sellin an '83 for 1300 obo id jump on it but im holding out for a second gen.

 

I would but I really havn't got the money. I found out a couple days ago that I gonna need a new engine in the truck afterall.. Im gonna do it right this time though. I am going with all new. Itll take me a little while to git er done but hopefully itll all be good by the Jambo.

 

if i could get my @$$ up to bailey id offer to give u a hand. but bummer though. big bummer

 

Yeah its got me down. Jus lookin at it sittin there in the yard for the last weeks jus really bums me out. I will get er done tho, I always do lol. Plus I will be drivin the 85 so its all good haha.

 

hey zach- you get the license plate mounted to the diff, yet?
