Well, I picked up this truck the other week.

1986, 350 th400. New exhaust.

Got it for $900 and drove it home.

I'm gonna drop it, repaint it, and drive it. I added the jegs filter, and removed a topper and bed liner.

Oh, it was a 4.3, but it started knocking, so they swaped in this 350.

I did the same thing awhile back...mine is an 89 though....dropped it,wheel/tired it, and painted it....nice driver

I really like those square box trucks, and you got a really good price on it.

I bought a 93 4.3 5spd, door and bed are a little dented, not real bad, paid $150 for it, but it also needed a tranny, I think I'll fix the dents and put some wheels on it, I don't think I'll drop it though, I might have to crush some lowered Junk(rice) here in holando, Might fill the bumpers with concrete!!!!

I love clean, lowered custom trucks. To me, they are one of the easiest vehicles to mod conservatively and really make a statement.

Looks like a nice driver, Johnny. I like older trucks as drivers. I have a 90 that I have just started on, but it's a driver already. It's just an ugly one! Your 89 is really nice, Travis.
