seeing that im bagging this truck i guess i will start a thread here of the build...

i got this truck its a 1 owner 98 rcsb step side but the guy was going to part it out on craigslist so i made a call and got the whole truck for a $1000.. has less then 150,000 it just needed a front clip but i had other plans lol.. the only down fall was he pulled the front clip an was going to pull the motor to sale. he also pulled the engine wiring all out of the truck but didnt cut any wires, i just hate to come behind some one after they pull something apart. but with the wiring out of the way helps do what i need to do. but here is some pix from the day i got it to where im at now.
