Hello everyone,
Here is my truck, I call her "Blue Beauty."
A little story behind the truck: I bought her in 2014. It had an engine problem, bought her for cheap, turns out she needed an injector spider. Now she runs like the day she came out of the factory. I have been adding and buying accessories for her and doing more clean-ups/restoring more (slowly). In Summer 2016, me and my dad painted my truck the factory "Indigo Metallic Blue." She used to be a Blue/Pewter two-tone, but I didn't like it. Replaced the rust on the body, cab corners and rocker panels, she wasn't too rusty for what I paid for (less than $2000), not common here in Iowa. Added lots of accessories as you can see in the before and after pics. She is a beaut, I have put a lot of time and money into this project and haven't regretted it. She will be pulling a lawn mower trailer about 50 miles each week in the late spring, summer, and early fall months. I try to clean the "h" out of this truck about 1-2 times a month, just don't want it to get like it did before. I take pride in my stuff.
I might be able to get a video maybe Thursday of a tour of the truck. I probably won't, got a lot to do that day.
