Well i was hoping to get back into a jeep, but this trade came along and for the job i have its kinda nice to have a pickup...so here she is.

 

Clean truck. Id have to do something about the wheels. lol.

 

Wheels not perfect but I would concentrate on the arches.

 

A set of Bushwacker OE flares will take care of that. The angry eyes look odd on that. Nice truck though.

 

Its nothing perfect, has rust and 230,000 miles...but a decent pickup to get me back and forth to work in the woods...The wheels where a gift last year from my wife and they've been on 4 different vehicles, and she wont let me sell them so whatever i'll rock them if it makes her happy. They look much better than the ugly stock one's that where on it though. And the angry eyes where something i never got to do on my old xj so i figured what the hell i'll give it a shot on this old beast. I must say for over 200,000 miles she drives straight as an arrow down the highway with no play in the steering and no stupid wind noise in the doors, and gets around 14 mpg...Unlike my old 89 that had 204,000 and had to put about replace every steering component in it and got maybe 12mpg on a good day, along with enough cab noise down the highway you couldn't have a conversation with a passenger.
How it looked the day i got it.



My 89 rockin the same wheels.lol



My old flat black jimmy rockin the shiney wheels.lol



And lastely my old c10 with the shiney's on.

 

It looks pretty good for its age,I would change a couple of things like the mirrors and the front end.

 

What would you do with the mirrors and front end?

 

I'm a Chevy guy myself

 

Looks good...I've owned 5 80's model chevy's and i love them.

My son by my old 83 Blazer.

 

That upsets me, Damn NJ Lift laws

 

I'd put the sport mirrors on it and the silverado front end on it.

 

Ya i definatly want to put the silverado front on...especially being i hit a pheasant yesterday and busted the grill.

 

Haha ya lift laws suck...no worries here in good ole South Dakota.

 

Haha gotta build a bow tie but nice truck

79 k5

 

Diesel move down south Kentucky has no lift laws at all or even mud flap laws its nice.
