I've owned this b2 for 3 years.Nearly lost it on the Uhaul trailer on the journey home through a bad snow storm after i bought it for $800. Its been a DD, has gone through a trans rebuild shortly followed by a motor swap due to a failed head gasket and seized engine. I've replaced just about everything on this just to keep her on the road.
Back in october i rear ended a ram 1500. soo since then I've been working on building her up to be better than before. below is the nearly finished headlights and custom grille for the B2. they are 5 3/4 headlights.. the second picture is a few months before i wrecked it, the 3rd is obvious.. heartbreaking damage. and 4th is the best picture i could get of the day i bought it. i drove 7 hours away just to look at it.
AS soon as the weather breaks here i'll be doing a belltech shackle install(replaced leaf springs already and they sag with only a half tank of gas) homemade fiberglass hood, repair the core support, frame and get a new front bumper. other To-Dos will include an FM146 swap(currently a rebuilt A4ld) a bullbar and KClights and some other junk to make her purty. might try to cram some 31x10.5s under it if money allows as i've got the '57 pickup to dump money into aswell.
