She is going to be a long process, but I am planning on getting her to show truck level of beauty!

Pretty clean original paint still!!

New wheels and tires right off the bat. Will eventually do a small lift and slightly bigger tires. Possibly make it 4x4.

New rear bumper and bedrail covers. Tailgate trim is on the way!

She still gets out and about!

She tows like a champ as well!

New trim moulding above lower red stripe. New mirrors on the way!

Old wheels are for sale if anyone is interested. Mounted on some crappy tires that still hold air fine but the wheels themselves are pretty good shape!

That paint is cleann though!

Interior is in great shape! I dont know if i will do too much to it as i kind of like the feel of the old worn \"beater" truck interior!

That truck does look really nice. buffing and polishing the paint could really help it look good. I really think the tires on it look great too, and the interior looks fine, ive always liked the red for these trucks.
If you really want it to be showy the first thing id do is have that window tint either redone or removed.

Great looking truck. I've got a 94 with a red/maroon interior and love it - the only things I recommend are all pictured below - Husky floor liners to protect the carpet ($70-80), a dash cover to protect the dash ($40), and a leather wheelskin for the steering wheel ($50-60). A DA polisher and some good rubbing compound followed by polish will make the paint look new.
