It's not a cool old original 4x4 truck like I would build, but I did get paid to redo it for a guy, so I thought I would share the photos with y'all. I think it came from south of Texas, WAY SOUTH OF TEXAS! The inside of the truck was covered in cloth to match the seat, and I do mean EVERYTHING including the steering wheel. It took for every to strip all of that out. Somebody had sprayed some paint on it before, but it was not properly sanded. Some of the paint was stuck well, but most was not. It had a lot of rust in the floor and cab corners that I cut out and welded new back. The front end had been wrecked before and patched back, but it was not done right. I had to jack front left corner of the radiator support up and out by more than two inches. The frame horn had to be brought out 4 inches to line back up correctly. The owner wanted to do some of the work himself, like installing the headlights, rear bumper, tires and wheels and stuff like that. So here are some before and after photos.
