I know the guy you bought that from.

You'll be happy with it. I don't think that he cut any corners working on that truck.

You'll also be happy as hell with the suspension. Nate builds some seriously impressive suspension parts, some of which I hope to eventually run in my own truck...

Not sure how far I'm going to go....original paint truck but it does have a few marks in it which is understandable for being 32 years old. It's getting Wilwoods on all four corners, Air Ride Technologies air management system, it only has the bags in it so far, and Vintage Air for sure. mocking everything up then going to take the cab and box off and the frame and susension is all going to be powdercoated black. I might and I say that term loosely paint the truck..not sure yet

BTW--Very cool Wagon, we have the same one sitting in inventory we might do something with eventually.When you get time could you email me what all you did to it and what you used? Looks kinds tricky to stuff that wheel and tire combo under it? [email protected]
