Im so glad to be back

hey guys i picked up another truck to work on. im so happy to be back on here. i picked up about a month and a half ago. it was on craigslist maybe four or five months ago up north.im sure some of you have seen it. the guy i bought it from brought it down and had no time for it , so here we are. its pretty beat up but all we have is time. i already replaced the motor. and picked up trans, rearend and a bunch of accesories to get this truck up and going. i hope you guys like it. i hope to get it looking like my old truck in the last pic .

Sweet nice truck! I'll be watching your build you're pretty close to me too! Are you planning on bagging this one or static drop?
