1985 SWB Customized

My brother picked this thing up from an old friend. Does anyone have any info on the Shadow by san-kar customized vehicles from the 80's?




You may see it on power tour this year.... not sure it will look like this....

lol.. ya rinse and repeat!

The weird thing behind the cab has found a new location, all the rest of the junk is off the truck currently.

Getting an LS swap and dropped, I think he's planning to leave the funky paint until he's collected all the replacement panels it needs.
