I got it a couple of months ago. It had a frame up restoration in. 2004. They did a nice job but its showing its age. Had to have the transmission rebuilt but its fully drivable now. Cruises 75-80 on interstate just fine.

Really like those wheels. Do you know the name of the blue and silver paint? Those are really close to what I would like to paint my truck but in a different pattern.

I can't take credit for it. The previous owners did a great job restoring it back in 04. I'm adding a few of my own touches and fixing things that are showing their age. One being the transmission. Its rebuilt now just doing cosmetics.
 The paint is 04 Chrysler Intense blue pearl (PB3) and the silver is Viper silver.

2 of mine have jumper seats, the others its just open. The crewcab needs it so the rear seat can lay down. This is the rear of my tan and black truck. I'm gonna make some for the others. The Blue one is only a two seater and there's 4 or us.

What are your plans with it? I think it would look a lot better with a little more of a classic touch and without the stripes. Do you have any larger pics of the interior?

My plans with this one is to fix the few flaws it has, put my 18's on it and just cruise it as is. I really need to get back on the other ones. I think the crew cab is next so we can use it to haul the family and pull this one. I think I want to go kinda old school on the tan and black GMC. Considering an old school pro street setup, 15" wheels on all 4 corners ( hoping to order 15x14 rallys for rear) and painting it back original colors like was once stated here before. I think it was your advice on the original colors Vile, but its been a while. The back half chassis for the prostreet will allow be to put a standard short bed on it. I just so happen to have a perfect bed ready for it.
