I liked the looks of the parts truck but then I always liked step sides. Your build looks good

Hey everyone that 83 is mine and my sons wheeler we been busy at building.It started as a 6.2 diesel im building up a 454 that should be real nasty along with a complete turbo 400 rebuild with a few mods also with a 1800stall .It has many hours at this point and yes its very clean and just a few dings but we are going to enjoy it there will be plenty of bugs to work out but just about every part we touched is new or rebuilt.We do plan on doing cut out flairs but will do that at work with the plasma cutter as far as the old blue 85 stepside its just parts now So if we keep at it im hopeing to be ready in a few months and would like to go with a group of people wheelin.We will keep ya posted on the photos we are a little closer than the photos now.We hope to meet up with some good people and do some wheelin Thanks Richk

So since we last posted the truck has transformed into a orange machine cab bushings were shot so replaced with new while it was torn apart every inch of this truck was brought down to the bare metal so the paints like glass. Gonna be a show queen now it's on its way back home to be assembled.
