[Xetabur]

Congrats! How many miles on it?

 

[aging fleet]

That happened fast, congrats!

 

[bluecruiser]

1st mod should be "loosing" the running boards. 2nd should be avoiding the urge to Plastidip anything. Nice looking truck.

 

[FloridaTom]

Looks good.

Are you based out of Ft Myers?

 

[Traskew3]

Congrats! How many miles on it?

56k on the clock!

 

[Traskew3]

Sorry all, I tried to post a link but I'm too new . It's a 1998 LX with 56k 2 older couples in Ft Myers all it's life. I bought it over the phone, gave a deposit and will pick up Friday.

 

[blatant]

[Traskew3]

Man! Nice find. I have been looking for a while and just not finding the right one.

Im in Fl as well....maybe when i find mine we can take them out?

Congrats! Nice color, great deal!
Im w you, get rid of the gold, easiest way has been posted: plastidip. You just need one can, easiest job ever. They have an anthracite color now that looks better -IMHO- than black.

Wanna go back to gold? Easy to reverse.

 

[Traskew3]

Yeah I gotta turn them something other than gold, that ill never have again!

 

[Traskew3]

From the dealers website, will pick up Friday and I can barely contain my self!!

Congrats

Congrats! First things I did when I got mine were the same, ditch the running boards and paint the gold emblems black. I hate the gold emblems! I also had to ditch fender flares and a gold pin stripe. More ugliness gone.

 

[SmoothLC]

Wow - another low mile Cruiser.

Way to go!

 

[Bloomer]

Great find. Congratulations.

FL here as well. I put 100 miles on mine and then ditched the running boards, 2.5" OME Lift, Toyo AT 33s. I would consider going with the TEQ badge to replace your gold ones. Good luck, maybe we can get some of these FL trucks together one weekend.

I left the running boards on for a while due to small kids, but the easiest way to ditch the gold emblems is plastidip, and it's cheap too. I made all of mine black that way.
