My 88 RCSB

Plans changed again for the last time, really want to be DDing this with my plans done within a year or 2. Engine and trans are getting yanked soon and sold to help fund LS swap.
 
*edit* letting people spend my money :fp: I am going to be going with a 4-6 Superlift(5" diff drop) that comes with 5100s and instead of blocks going to go with some Pro Comp 3" leafs(supposed to be great riding), set the angles flat at 5" be level but clear(I hope anyway) 315/75R16 Goodyear MTRs on some 16x8 AR Nitros with 4.5" BS(had the wheels already, will probably end up as winter wheels someday). Thinking Pro Comp 17x9 polished 1089s on 315/70 MTRs for the final setup.

Fucked around with one of the wheels today for about 10-15 min, they are going to be saveable so I'm happy.
Before, didn't polish this spot but entire wheel looked like this

After

Comparison
 
Just remembered when I tossed in a good used battery($10) in it way back at the end of June that I got a video of it starting but just got it up today :rofl:

AR Nitros, those are 16s, actually don't look bad on the truck but still think if I just get tires for any of the wheels I have it will be the GMC 16s I have

IT LIVES

Pulled it out of the garage today for the first time in almost 2 years, cranked pretty hard but it still fired on the first try






dat dusty hood tho


Oil pressure is good still :success:
 
time to give it a quick wash, and put her back in, start to do some small things

Not even going to bother washing it, hood is fucked, doors are junk, bed is junk, paint is crap. I have a good hood and good doors in my parents garage but they are 2 tone blue so I need to just buzz bomb them black or deal with a funky black/light blue/dark blue 3 tone thing. Plans for this winter are just get it tuned up, fix most of the leaks, do something with the exhaust and get my cab mounts so I can get those on.

So this happened today, registered it, added it back on my insurance so it "legal"
This summer it will get tune up (plugs wires, filters, O2 sensor etc....), new fuel lines, new brakes front and rear, 4wd fixed and the couple lights fixed. If possible I'd like to get some new seatbelts and cab mounts (the metal bracket welded to frame, bushings are actually still good).
 
Some pictures since it's out of the garage

Interior isn't as bad but it's still pretty bad
