So I moved it form Stock Trucks to the project/builds section. While I was deciding what color to paint my truck I started to clean my garage at my house so that I could move the luv home and get it out of the mud trap that is my friends house. I found a old Wile E. Coyote Stuffed toy. It reminded me of my Dad's truck that he had because Wile would sit in the back window. It was a 1994 Chevy truck it was Black and red. I walked up to my dad and asked what he thought if I dedicated my truck to his. He had to get rid of it due to finacial problems at the time. He thought it was a great idea and was excited.
The Luv is being painted with Rattle Can. We aren't doing the poor mans way but then at the same time we are. To start the project off we took the 4x4 off the hood primered the first coat then sanded it down to where it was almost smooth then we reprimered it and then sanded that again to where it was smooth we took the bed off because we were going to replace it decided to instead keep the numbers matching and decided to attemp to fix the three holes. For the carpet I got red pre molded carpet from JC Whitney just looking at it, it wont cover all the floor so below the carpet we are putting in spray in bed liner from Wal Mart. Going to attempt at reupholstering the seat and the door panels myself. There is a person on here who says he has referished a dash I figured what do I have to loose and will try to do the same. I'm going to keep the orignal radio in there for looks.
There is not to much to do with the engine, already did some of the tune ups new spark plug wires, spark plugs, got a new ignition coil, I have 4 reverse switches one on the transmission that I believe is broken because when I put it into revese it blows a 15 amp fuse. I have two fuses not getting any power at all I go to start the luv it will fire off then once I let go of the key it dies. So I have some wiring problems but other than that it runs fine goes forward just fine.
