I finally found my pics from 2007 bofore all of the body and engine work for my truck. I figured for the first post w/ pics i'd start from the beginning. Got the truck in '07 from a guy here in town. He was asking $2500 but my dad and myself talked him down to $1250. As you can see, it had a bit of rust.

Looks like a very straight truck to start with.

BreathnFumes · 10-06-2009, 08:58 PM

Yeah, we are novices to say the least so it had to be!

daverod · 10-06-2009, 08:58 PM

Rust? You have no idea what rust is. Come to Idaho I'll show you some rust.

Looks like a good truck.

Sweet- like the chocolate

daverod · 10-06-2009, 10:37 PM

Nice work. Would look even better if it was about a foot lower.

That last picture looks like it should be on a safety poster or somthing.

BreathnFumes · 10-06-2009, 10:38 PM

maybe 3/4... the truck is half my dad's and he's too old to get into a low truck. (that's his denali in the background)

daverod · 10-06-2009, 10:42 PM

Thats why you put bags in it. When it's time to get out you pump it up.

MacAttack · 10-07-2009, 01:00 PM

Nice looking rig - much potential - had a GMC that was just like it.

Mac.

Just give your dad the back half.

Hahahaha, the bed is his favorite part actually. we replaced all the oak temporarily w/ pine. Eventually a custom birch or maple kit is going back there.
