If I do paint it, it will be black
black is a PITA to keep clean, a lil harder then i thought it would be, but it looks great on these trucks IMO.

Tires and Windshield First
New AC Compressor
MSD Coil
Regap plugs
Performance Plug Wires
New Cap and Rotor
Turbo Muffler and shorten the exhaust
Bucket Seats
Sliding Rear Window - Found one for $16 @ salvage Yard - Maybe Pay Day!
Tinted Windows
Crystal Clear Headlights
Some kind of Paint Job - Keeping it all black, but probably a flat or semi gloss with all the front plastics done in bed liner to match the bumpers. I saw Ted Nugent's Bronco on Gearz last week with the grill and headlight bezels done in bed liner and I like it!

4bt , buy the whole motor, 2 more pistons won t kill you.

The black hole,

Finish the fender mounts, mount the glass fenders.

Scavenge some tube for bumpers, and stuff.

Figure out why the rear pinion nut backed off.

Scavenge a track lock

Find some tires that aren t back ordered

Hack up a set of glass bedsides to fit, and suit me.

Convince myself a 5.0 doesn t suck as a truck, or anything motor. That s gonna be hard.

Flat black or shiney?


The blue one,

Either find a cab, or dismantle it for parts, or make a truggy.

Do i really want to fix it , or make a shortbox flareside out of my 80s parts pile?

Because the 6bt weighs more and I'll have to put a two inch body lift to fit it. With the 4bt your only sacrificing about 10 hp max. Better mpg. And I'll only have to put a one inch body lift. The 6bt won't work with the electric fan setup I have too.
