Well here it is. I bought it from racemoney off this forum. (i think thats his name on here) Nothing special yet. Its a 1976 Chevy Luv. Completely stock. Came with ac heat(even tho its not working), front disc<sp? brakes. Motor cranks over, it just has some bad vacum leaks. It will be runnin tomorrow. It'll be in full primer within a month or 2. Well here are 3 pics i snapped right after we got it off the trailor. We washed it, vacumed interior, and cleaned the motor compartment a little. Oh yeah, and i took the tool box thing off and threw it in the trash.

Nice!!! Looks like a good truck that doesn't need to much TLC. Haven't seen many of the green ones. Hope you have as much fun fixing it up as I did mine! :wink:

Well, i finally got around to taking pictures of the new wheels. They are 16" Centerline Scorpions. Got em cheap... main reason i went with em. We had to redrill rear axles and drums, and make an adapter for the front. The fronts dropped around 3", all i did was loosen torsion bars up, i am still debating on wether to drop rear a little, its at stock height now. Well here are a few pics, not very good due to shit in the way.

You dont know who Ben is?!?!?! O Man, You're in the dog house now. He can make you and your new truck disappear with a click of a mouse. You'd be wise to find him and apologize real fast. It's rumored that he has "Lawnmower Man" type powers thru the internet so HURRY!!! Before it's too late!!!
