Currently trying to get a whole home remodel done by may/July so we can hopefully buy a friend's house that has a few acres and a decent sized pole barn. With any luck once that happens I'll be able to really knock out some work on this ole girl. If not it'll be another driveway build I guess

as of now I've just been doing reading and research, seeing exactly what route I want to go on the truck. Current plans are as follow. 6" lift, 35" thornbirds on either polished wheels or white d windows. Leaning towards a purple/white 2 tone paint. Cowl hood, clear markers, polish rear lights, Tint windows, wouldn't mind a thumpr cam( really just want a nice lope, not looking for performance) exhaust, redo dash pad and paint door panels, kilzmat and carpet, new speakers, stainless grill, and trying to track down a lund lighted visor. Obviously plans can and will change some as things progress and it starts to come together and I have a better visual.

Been away for a little bit working on other projects, and life in general. But I have a fairly good parts pile. Currently have a true dual 2.25 dynomax exhaust system, new inner fenders and battery tray, 6" lift kit, 36x14.5r15 m/t baja bias plys, 15x14 bart super truckers, lund survivor. Plus a few other misc parts built up. Prolly going to give it a quick paint job soon just to get it back one color and a little more protection since it has no paint left from sun fade and weather. Plus get my lift, wheels/tires and exhaust installed. I want to be picking my kid up from school on his last day of the year in it, and cruising it on the 4th of July. Once summer is over with hopefully I will have a place with a shop and can pull the body off and paint frame and do body work.

Finally got some time to work on it. Got the lift on, new steering drag link, 36x14.5r15 mickey thompson baja belted tires on 15x12 bart wheels, had to run a 2" spacer to clear the front brakes. Also have a 2.25 dual manifold back exhaust to put on so I can install front driveshaft, and I have a lund visor to install. Then I can start saving up body parts and interior parts so I can tackle that part of the truck next.
