Bought this truck on eBay in 2003. Looked wayyyy better than it was in person. Probly shouldn't have rebuilt it. But I have been working on it off and on since. She's finally coming together.
Replaced both driver and passenger side floors, door and striker posts, rocker panels, kick panels, inner fenders. Basically everything that ends up with cancer, got replaced. She was bad. Had to get three tetanus shots in the process
