[Windowlicker]

Greetings mud,

This is my first LC build. I snagged the rig from a one owner retired army vet here in San Antonio. I’ve had it for a few weeks and I am working on a full baseline with the help of a few local mud members. I will also need some input on the name for this project! The rig was green from the factory, it was repainted to this wonderful shade of bling by the PO.

Gold member?
C3PO?
Jackpot?

Found a sunroof “leak”

Ended up dropping the headliner after clearing the drains. And then I found this!

Damn, that thing looks clean. Jealous of that interior! C3PO is a great name. Welcome!

Nice rig!! good think you found that sunroof leak source. $750 for lockers!! Why didn't everyone get them?

I can’t get over how cheap they were from the factory...

Interesting combination of cloth interior, with factory lockers.

Nice truck.

 

[Rollinns]

Great looking truck.

I think you should call it "Goldie Brawn"

Nice rig. What is the mileage? Looks better underneath than mine. Mine was originally purchased in Texas. Several years in Kansas. Several in California. And then around 19 in New Jersey.

"BULLION" and it fits on a plate.

This way, if you build it big, it can take on a second connotation.

That is very clean! You've done well!

That truck has had a lot of maintenance and has been kept up. Quick things I see:
replaced PS reservoir
Swapped Charcoal Canister
Appears to be new radiator (may not be factory tho)



Although:
Your balls are dry. Lube them.

Check the moly in the front knuckles.

Mileage is 205k rig spent a short stint in Ohio (garage kept and not there through a winter thank god), a few years in Vegas and the rest all in San Antonio.
