1989 pickup build...

well finally decidied i would post up my rig. it is my daily driver ( when it works ) its also my first vehicle. it used to be in pretty rough shape but me and my dad have been putting some life back into it.
so far we have done
-clutch master,slave
-brake master
-new drum shoes
-wheel cylinders
-replaced fluids
thats about it mechanically
we are in the process of body work and painting it!

thats how it was when we got it

some poser flex shots aha it was in some random neighborhood late at night

some pics right before primer


now some pics of the primer laid on


may not be much of a build but its what i got

I restored a 91 extended cab. They ride great and are an all around great little truck. Like what I have been seeing. Keep up the great work.
