I just bought another truck yesterday.
It's a '92 B2200. It has somewhere around 217,000 miles on the odometer, but it was towed behing an RV so who knows how many of those miles are on the engine. For the most part it's in good shape, just a bunch of little things here and there. I don't plan on doing anything major to it except bagging it. Just figured I'd put this in the projects section and try to update it as I did things here and there. This weekend I'm going to try to lower it, remove the molding off the lower body, remove the bug deflector, and remove what's left of the tow bar; weather permitting. Anyways, on to the pics! I'll get more up this weekend if I get anything done.

Thanks guys!



Yea, I noticed that trim yesterday and thought to myself, "I didn't even know they had chrome trim for the rear window. I think all it's missing for chrome is the grill, bumper, and the little strips on the top of the bumper ends?

Kyle, you just cut some ball joint plates for me!

I went to lower it today, and found out one of the leaf spring packs has no arch to it. The other one may have too much arch? I don't know. I'm gonna go to the junk yard tomorrow to get a different set of leafs, and hope they work out better. If I get this thing lowered and sitting level tomorrow I'll get some pics up. lol

Yea, well half of them were. Not for this Mazda though, my other Mazda that Doug's been working on, on and off, for the last 4 years. The other set is for another Mazda in the club.

Yea, I drove the truck around today and the rear levelled out. I think they were just tweaked from jacking it up, and then setting it back down on a sloped driveway? Who knows....
