Welcome from the north lands of New Hampshaa.
Some people are like Slinkies. Not really good for anything, but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs

Thanks for the welcome.
I live in Nacogdoches, hit me up and you are more than welcome to come and check the trucks out.
My favorite right now is the 81 because it is mostly finished if that is ever possible..HAHA The swb dually is a new project that is gunna take some time, its mostly in pieces. And its a combination of about 3 trucks: a 79 2wd rc cab and chassis dually (body rusted to pieces), a 85 rcswb 4x4, and a wrecked 87 rcswb. And I can't make my mind up to keep the 6.0/4l80e or put a cummins and a 5-speed in it.
And the 80 4x4 dually is just a play toy/ work truck.
And I will certainly post pics when I get a chance.
