Hey Guys..
Just thought I would say whats up on my first post.
Dont know if it means anything too you guys but I am usually on NWP4Life.com. <---Check it out.
Picked up my first Mini yesterday morning. 1983 Sundowner. Wanted too do something different, So I went with a Pre. I am only 19 years old but have all the skills and resources too build this truck. Wanted to do a Mini too Show off my fab skills, so we will see how it goes.
Now for some pics. Keep in mind I Have only had this truck for one day guys.And it was in a Grass Field For more than 3 Years just sitting. Should Be Fun. Will start a Build thread soon, as it will be getting a 4 Link, Body Dropped and I Plan on Building full Tube chassis complete with a SBC.
Picture of my Workspace.130' by 80' FTW.
After about Two hours of Cleanup.
Nature was all over this truck.Point Proven.
So let me know what you guys think. Worked on it some more last night and got the rear static dropped as a 2 link last night and started sanding on the real bad parts of the cab last night. I plan on starting a Build Thread soon, we will just have too see where it goes from here.

Welcome to the site! Nice find that truck looks like its in real nice shape. Nice shop too! Idk what you have planned for paint, but I think it would pretty kickass to get some copys of those decals made up and back on the truck, they look pretty sweet.
