Bought this truck a couple of months ago. Finishing up a 4.5/6 static drop. Installed new carb and intake to get it running well.
Plans are: Rust repair
Get it to 1 color
Add a stereo
Drive it
Once that is done I'm sure I will have more plans, but just want a reliable decent looking driver.

Re: 81 swb

Bought the doors at pick in pull this past week and as a bonus they were already tinted. Truck had only been there about a week. The tape for the "for sale" sign was still on the window and I realized it was a truck I passed twice a day to a from work. It was a longbed that was for sale for several months.

The doors are power and mine were manual. I haven't decided if I want to add the wiring or change to the manual regulators from my old doors.

When you have your card number, expiration date, and security code memorized you have ordered too many parts!
