Hey guys my name's Justin, I'm a squarebody lover from Beaumont,Tx and I owned a 85' swb about 2 years ago and loved that truck to death and regreted selling it ever since.Well I end up getting a trade offer for my del sol that I was quite tired of so I jumped on it.I ended up getting a 83' stepside with lots of new parts thats lowered and a 86' lwb that needs the interior put back in and the fenders put back on.
Me checking the alignment out on the 83' today at work.Toe was a little outta wack.

A scion is closer to the shape and size of a refrigerator box than any chevy truck made, why do we call our trucks square bodies?
