Bought this truck last winter after the previous owner has rear-ended a Jeep with it. Besides the obvious front end damage and one spot of rust on a rear wheel well, the truck is really clean for a 94 in upstate NY! It sat around for a few months until I found time to work on it. I'll let the pictures tell the story...

Good job ! Kudos !

Nice & clean for an oldtimer. Sweet. And you even scored a billet grille and clear corners. What happened to the deer hoof rims? Did you untwist the pass. side frame rail? A little dab of paint, and it'll look fabulous.

Frame rails are straight. I had to pull core support... probably should've replaced it but I got it back close to where it should be. Driver side inner fender has a little tweak in just before it meets the core support. If I had replaced the core support this would've been corrected, instead I re-drilled the front fender mount hole. I actually have a parts truck with a clean straight core support so maybe I will get it all straight at some point. For now it looks good from the outside, all body panels line up very nice. My main priority for this phase was to get it driveable so that I can determine what else the truck may need before I dump too much time and money into making it look pretty. Deer hoofs had to go! I've never been a fan of them. They had good tires on them and I got $200 for them on craigslist so helps keep my budget on this truck low. Don't worry, these wheels won't be the last ones you see on this truck either.
