Box Rocket
SILVER Star
Many of you may be aware of this already since I mentioned it in another thread but yesterday I picked up a 1985 pickup that I actually used to own almost 20 years ago. I sold it in 2002 and it has sat for most of the time since then until last year. It popped up for sale locally and I bought it back for a project to work on with my second son who turned 16 this past summer.
This is what it looked like when I originally bought it in 2000.
Just before selling it it looked like this. I built a custom flatbed for it, added highsteer and IFS steeringbox, all new suspension (5.5" Alcan springs and bilstein shocks).

The truck was originally a 22R. The guy that bought it from me had an SDS fuel injection system from LC Engineering installed so it's now a 22RE with many OEM parts as part of the system but a standalone ECU created by LC Engineering.
Here's the truck after I got it home yesterday.
