Hey Guys started a new project! Story starts out like this: A buddy of mine bought this truck a while ago and ran it around here and there as his daily. The motor was rebuilt when he got it, but it through a piston within 8 months or so. After that she sat for over a year. When he finally decided to get rid of it He was going to sell it to some kid for $1300 so I thought about it and talked it over with my pops. So Here it is as of today.
So I searched around on craigslist for a donor rig. Being that it was a 22r I thought it would be best to switch it to a 22re instead. We found a donor for a reasonable price outside of selma, so we took a little trip over there to find ourselves in a very creepy place. The property was fenced in and we were let in at a 20ft gate! Once inside the gate was shut and holy moly this place was interesting to say the least. So after about 20-30mins of awkward conversation and jerry riggin this truck to make it run, It finally started!!! DONE DEAL HERE TAKE MY MONEY BRO WERE OUT
Here's was she looked like....(Donor)
So we stripped the motor put it on a stand, Then proceeded to take out all the dash and wiring harness to go with it.
Wire PILE!
Interior after stripping out the harness (donor truck)
So now its time to strip the truck down for a resto.
Interior has seen better days...
Seats are fairly nice just dirty
Under the hood before stripping her down
mmmmm old school KC light hehehe YOINK them gone.
Stay tuned till next time kiddies!
