My 83 I'm getting ready to rebuild
« on: July 12, 2009, 10:00:01 am »
I built this 83 for a friend five or six years ago for a work truck. After it was done he said it looked to good and left it sit in the garage. I bought it last winter for a good price, and have plans of redoing it this winter. This time I will do it to my style and when it comes out it won't look nothing like this. Plans are a complete color change, shaved handles, drip rails, one piece windows, rear roll pan, I'm going to do the interior in fiberglass, with a lot of diamond plate or polished trim, And tons more of mods. Plan on it taking a few years and a lot of $. I've been told that it would be dumb for me to do all that to this truck. What do you all think?

Do it, just ditch the visor.
