1987 swb
A lot of people already know about this truck. It belonged to BigArmZZ and F.Monroe prior to me. It's found a new home in western NC for now. I've got pictures from before BigArmZZ found it all the way to it's trip to Florida. Big thanks go to BigArmZZ for building this beauty and to Mr. Frank for taking such good care of it.

I checked the truck over pretty good and I think the driver door , drivers side bed side , and of course the hood have been painted . The rest is just clean original 87 Red. The truck was/is super nice I just couldnt keep it . I am sure Reuben will take care of it.

The front is dropped with Western Chassis 2.5 Spindles and 2.5 Springs.
The back has a flip kit and 2 inch shackles.

The backspacing is 5 1/4 up front and 5 1/2 out back.

BigArmZZ did all the work!
