    whats up everyone been lurking here for a while and just figured i intro myself my name is Tim and ive got an 85. i got it for a carton of smokes lol no j/k. when i got it the frame was wasted as most but this is it as it sits now with a Texas frame under it. I think i bobed it 16 inches and it has the magnum 17's. To come is a 3 or 4 inch layback chop and maybe bags. not sure what im doing with the bed yet as for the rust and i plan on putting some 4xfenders on soon as i find some!!

    That thing look really cool. Id fix the bed but leave it in that kinda primer or something and tint the windows. It would look even cooler if it was laying on the ground.

    I like it.Looks military-ish.Put some numbers on the side with a star and mount a 50.cal in the back and hit the road.Mad Max!

    Welcome to TM. I think the truck is good looking. I would suggest fixing the rust holes and dropping the rear a little more to make it even. Then leave it like that. Would look amazing. It would also look awesome laid completely out too.

    Thanks everyone. Its a conversation piece where ever i go. Eventually it will get layed out but these things are hard to static layout. I had hardbodys before and it was a hell of alot easier to get on the ground. This thing is on a super tight budget right now while i pay off my other truck but it will have funding soon i hope
