Thanks Guys, I've had a very busy week or so here lately, so here's a quick run down. I went and looked at this truck about 3 weeks ago but the owner was not home but his wife let me look it over and fire it up in the garage. On my way home which is a 4 1/2 hour drive I though it over and thought it would be a nice truck to own. So this past weekend I was off work but my sons wedding was Saturday and then was the reception which led to a "after" reception get together with adult beverages LOL and that resulted into getting back home at about 12:30 AM. My wife and I slept till about 4AM and got up to start our way to pick up this truck, to make a long story short I bought it and didn't get back home till late Sunday, left for work at 3AM Monday. So the details on the truck, believe it or not it doesn't have a Ls in it....... it has a mild build 350 with a set of GM Performance vortec heads and a comp cam. The body is original sheet metal with the drivers side rocker replaced. It was frame off restored 6 years ago, the frame and underneath the cab is painted nice and slick. Looks like it's lowered with CPP stuff, Billet Specialty wheels, Nitto tires. It has Vintage Air but he never finished the lines. I got everything from him to complete it I think.....
It's no show stopper but a well above average cruiser. Sorry for the long story

Here’s the ride home, for some reason the lights in my garage hides the “pop” of the red paint

Nice truck Jason!

BossHogg69 · 11-16-2017, 12:40 PM

Engine bay is nicely detailed. I'm sure you spend some time this winter 'making it yours' so to speak. I look forward to seeing what you do!

Very true, I already ordered Dakota VHX gauges, Ididit tilt column, and a black Billet Specialty steering wheel for it!!!!

I’ll probably start a different “customized” thread on this truck in a week or two. I guess it shouldn’t be called a build thread huh.....

I dunno, Jason. It looks like a show truck in the pictures. Certainly one you can be proud to drive. The parts you ordered will remove any doubt. Looking forward to more mods on the new thread.

Man, I'm with Vic. This sure does look nice in the pictures. Nice score Jason! I like the sound of the mods you'll be making. Be sure to post a link to your thread when you start the new one.
