    Just found you guys, great site. I just bought a 1985 turbo x-cab 2wd from the original owner of 26 years. this thing has been a garage its whole life. I need to go thru it, but it runs and drives great. I am looking forward to having a place to turn for info and just cool pictures!

    Welcome! The picture makes the truck look like it was straight off the lot. A turbo ext-cab is not too common. Do you have any plans for it or rock the nostalgia?
