It's difficult to know just how much you don't know until you know it.
In other words... if people learn by making mistakes, by now I should know just about everything!!!

I really can't believe that it took me so long to do this.
I also can't believe the difference it has made.
Such a dummy sometimes.  ;D

I've been told a million times that "it would look killer with some rims on it".
Nah, I like the old Rally's.  8)

nothing like the stock look.  Here was my 84 a few years ago.

That is one I wish I hadn't got rid of!  This was after I did some sprucing up on it.  I couldn't sell it with the rally's

Hey guys, it's been a while since I updated this thread.
I really haven't done much to my truck until recently. I've just been driving it and enjoying it.
Recently I went through and replaced a bunch of hardware in my grill, repainted my headlight bezels and stuff.
Then I repaired a leaky input shaft on my steering box by replacing it with a quick ratio Borgeson and a u-joint shaft.
It's definitely quicker and more responsive. I like it.  8)

My truck's OEM color was the same baby blue as your truck when I bought it in Colorado. It was quite a while back when I did a color change.

Well, I got on a roll and couldn't stop myself today.
New billet aluminum alternator bracket mounts my alternator down much lower than the factory bracket.
I like it.  8)
