Did some stuff and took some pics over this long weekend.

Well We got a bunch of stuff done on the old junk this weekend.

We Put a Good used radiator in and put a fan shroud on, then we Put on a Ramcharger rear bumper then we put a set of Mile Marker hubs on the front and then we put on some new bed rail caps and painted the toolbox black and put it back in after that we washed the truck and then got out the high speed buffer and put a real good shine on the old multicolor. We also put the exhaust back under the truck. Gettin ready to pull street stock.

All in all it was a fairly productive weekend.

Picture time

weird rear bumper, is it off an RC?

Also, you gotta finally paint that thing one of these days! It'd look soooo good. I mean, it looks good now no joke but nothing says nice like fresh paint

Yeah the RC bumper really cleans up the back of the truck.

Couple more pics I took today.

All the bed rails I've found have come off of trucks at our local U Pull it yard.

KD93, Yeah I'm kinda fond of it myself.

ME? Have pictures?



That bumper started life as a piece of 8" channel Iron and me and my buddy Dan built it from scraps. Took us about 9 months working off and on on it in the evening. The Design was Dans Idea and I did the majority of the welding on it, another friend cut out the uprights and painted it. After we thought the fab work was done on it we did a test fit and it actually looked like crap so we had to cut both sides off and angle em back IDK how many degrees then weld it all back together. It also has a small tool box built in right in the center.


We call it the "Frame Killer 2000 X"

Turned out nice. As with most 1st gen owners who would like something other than factory our options are a bit limited so any ideas I can get are helpful.
