    well i just bought a bagged 93 std cab for 700. built my share of trucks in the past 15yrs. plan to make this one a daily dragger. its your basic bag job with a reverse 4link and engine driven compressor. motor runs strong. i've trashed the bed and hood, too messed up to fix, fenders and doors are being repaired and i plan on throwing a red-tinted primer job on it for now, using ppg products. have a set of 17in steel wheels i'm painting black and red for now with 205/40 on them. i'll drive and drag it like it is for now til i find a decent bed then i'll paint it. been a painter for 12yrs so painting it isn't a big deal. previous owner had messed the factory harness up pretty bad under the hood, so we're rewiring it now. i've posted a couple of pics in the gallery and will continue to post. below is a pic of my previous truck i built, it was the first dragger of the month in Minitruckin and was in the Scrapin the Coast drag footage on a domination dvd. it was bodydropped by Matt at the House of Hack and i did the body work and paint.
