Wow, those tires make it look really good already! I'm really looking forward to seeing this one all painted out as I love that one in the ad. Seems like these 80's macho are really rare and tuff to find as I dont see any when looking for macho's.

more progress....
added a set of 1 1/2-to-2 inch front springs to it...made it look like it should have from the factroy...sorry about the hoist in the way....but it was a picture moment, and I needed to get it done then....
the hoist is about 1/2 inch off of the frame...so it is at ride heigth...

stay tuned....more to come tomorrow thanks to my buddy Tim...nose art...

Looks great.

That's going to be a Fun Truck!

I can't wait to see it painted.

me too....the process begins next week, my body man is suppose to be picking up the bed to get media blasted on the inside....

Is 1980 the first year of power windows in those machines? Power locks started in '79 right?

-Ji

Jim....
You are correct.....pwr locks in 79, and pwr windows in 80.....

nose art......hickey style.....

debating on doing it the same color as the wheels, or going black....
thinking on putting on the sidewinder too...same thing there, yellow or black for the bracketry....

That push gaurd look really cool with the with the four head light grill. Not sure what color I'd paint the push gaurd?
