    hey guys i bought my truck off my dad just before he passed away to have something in memory of him. It was a trayback and was fairly rough so i started with 4x4 guards and removed the tray waiting for a 4x4 tub

    after lookin here in Aust for months i finally found a 4x4 tub and it only cost $50 but it was in Brissy so also cost $350 for freight, so i fully shaved the sides, fuel filler, tailgate and frenched the number plate.

    put a start to the interior by having the crashpad, hood lining, doortrims, inner door handles, cluster surround, and original bench seat recovered in a straw coloured vinyl. what could not be covered was all sprayed in 2pac

    Hey i like it! I'm building my dad's 86 as well (see sig), also its interesting to hear what you call the different components of your truck, crash pad, tray, etc. I like the diversity, anyways nice start!
