ok so i've got the truck pretty much done stage 1 of this build, its running and driving with the mazda 5spd tranny, exhaust stack is all built and working good. this truck has taken some serious modification to get it where it is now and im pretty happy with it, i just wish i had more time with my shop to paint it a nice flat black and get a new bed for the truck too.
heres some videos i've taken during the build, and ill link some pics up too, and my photobucket account as well if anyone cares to look through my build process. the full build write up is also linked in my sig, over to
