Just got an 88 b2200 for a winter beater, but of course cant leave well enough alone. Owned it for 3 whole days before i had it ripped apart. So far I have fixed all the body damage, shaved the fender emblems and the antenna. Looking at flipping the fuel filler into the bed, and adding a roll pan. Gonna paint it that vanilla white thats on the 300c.

Have already picked up a set of Z71's. and lowered it 3/4 with control arms and blocks. Should be a good winter beater.

No pics yet, its not exactly pretty right now. Almost all the body work is done, gotta order a roll pan from grant tomorrow. The new wheels and tires are in storage.

I am from regina, sask canada. The minitruck scene is scarce to say the least.

Not really new to trucks though....I have a 98 f150 with a 6-8 static drop, mostly shaved...new interior. All it needs is a turbo, and I will be happy with it.

The mazda should have about 5" of clearance from the frame to the ground, so that will make a good beater. HAHA

I forgot to mention that the mazda is a longbox. Seems to be very few of them around.
