progress on the splash.

so some of you may have known i picked up another truck over last summer.. well ive been finally working on it. after gathering parts an making a list over the winter iam finally getting somewhere.

this is when i first brought it home.

so far ive gone through the hole thing. did a tranny flush it was BLACK, bled the clutch, new plugs, wires fuel sock/filter changed radiator fluid, changed rear end fluid, new drums shoes pads shocks, rotors, everything
got a set of black projector headlights an corners with the Sylvania ultra bulbs an corner bulbs. got a speed grill that was chrome an had it powder coated gloss black. added the lower fog light valance from my black truck. tig welded up a custom intake an stainless exhaust. made new side steps out of diamond plate an had it powdercoated black. for the rear i bought a cali combo skin an plan to mud it in this weekend. added some 01 2 bulb tails an made a custom harness so they worked right. also lowered the truck a bit. rear hangers are flipped an front hangers are flipped. front end looks like their might have been drop coils from previous owner so i cut an inch out of them so the truck sat level shaved the 3rd brake light an soon to do emblems an antenna. dont have the funds to get it painted right off. interior is going to get worked very very soon

this is what i have now.. which grille do you like better stock or aftermarket?

a bit of a change since last summer for both.

over the winter its gonna get a new heart.. 2.3T!

Whassup, hey I'm not usually a fan of street trucks, but with fuel prices these days, that looks like a smart setup. I like the aftrmrkt grill, and didja get new rims too? Any ideas for what color for the new paint? BTW, ya gotta sweet collection of vehicles.

ya i bought it last year for gas an what not an got a wicked deal an wanted to build another truck. so i decided to go with a 2wd this time an turbo charge it.. the wheels are still the stock ones i polished them up an they look amazing now. i plan to pick up some 17s cobra rs next month in black so those will elminate any chrome left on the truck lol

ya theirs 6 vehicles in the yard now.. 3 are mine 2 are my dads an the stang is my moms.. the b2 i bought is just for a tough truck comp coming up.so after the summer its goin to the scrap yard..

Looks like a sweet truck. I've always wanted a stepside.

I'd definitely go with the aftermarket grille. I like it like it is but I thought I'd play with it a little. I came up with this:

Might be a little too much yellow...but I think with the logo it looks tight
