Will be nice to have you back in the scene!! <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_biggrin.gif" alt=":D" title="Very Happy" />

What a fun day today. I bought two B2200's for $1500! I'm officially back in the scene now.

First one I bought was a 92 reg cab with FI and 5 spd. Absolutely mint body on it, but someone decided that it would look better as a convertable so they cut the roof off. Then I think they decided it wasn't such a good idea, so they welded, screwed and foamed the roof back onto the cab. I paid $450 for the truck and drove it almost 3 hours back home. It runs absolutely mint.






Check out the sweet stacked 2 and 3&quot; blocks. Hint sarcasm


How about the awesome foamed and screwed roof? This is inside the cab above the cab speaker block off plate.



Or the seats that are safely bolted to the floor


This black truck is going to be stripped down and the motor is going to be pulled and swapped into this one;

'88 ext cab with a carb. Says it has a rebuilt motor. It runs great but the clutch or slave is just about done and the brakes are spongy. Truck is clean overall and I paid $1200 for it and I pick it up Monday night and will be driving it as of Tuesday. Motor and FI from the black truck will be swapped into the red one, as will the 3&quot; blocks and the wheels, chrome bumper and chrome trim tails and tailgate. This one also comes with a Kenwood sub and amp, but I need a headunit.




So, the red one is going to be my new ride! I can't wait to tear into it. We're going to do the motor swap next weekend, and probably drop it sometime this week.

It's good to be back!!!

Looks like we're gonna have a busy week!!!!

Welcome back Mikey, That black truck definitely looks clean to bad they hacked the roof. Keep the pics coming

Congrats Mikey on the great finds and good luck with the project(s). That red one looks like it has a super clean interior - pretty amazing for a truck that old!!! Given the cramped quarters of a standard cab I pretty much guessed you would go for the extended cab

Oh and nice to have you back in the &quot;family&quot; LOL

I really wanted the reg cab, but since the roof is all hacked up, I'm going to take all the good parts from the black truck and put them on the red one.

The red one has 405 000km on the body, or ~250k miles. It runs super strong, but the clutch is slipping and the pedal has absolutely no feel, it just flops to the floor when you touch it.

With a little TLC, it'll be a nice truck. It's fine for me booting around the city here because I no longer have to drive miles and miles away from home to go to work or run errands.

I'm undecided on the paint scheme at the moment. Lime green will make it a cop magnet again like Kermit was, but we'll see. Might just have to rock out in some primer for a bit.

Woot!!!!

Congrats Mikey!!! Glad to have you back, looks like you scooped up a good project there man...

Can't wait to see the build thread on this one.... <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_biggrin.gif" alt=":D" title="Very Happy" />

I'm debating whether or not to repaint the red truck using red Metalcast paint. Give it a candy rattle can job. Might be kinda cool!
