You need the pulley that bolts on to the front of the crank pulley?

I posted my carpet install on the previous page (81) post #2003. Not from a carpet kit, but the concept and "pointers" may be relatively the same. Hope it helps!

I fixed it up I didn't buy it looking like that. As for how much my truck cost I got it for a steal so I can really say how much you could get one for.

Me too then. Though mine doesn't have the exterior hallmarks of an 83 anymore...

This photo makes me realize I need some updated photos, though.

Rob, you did an awesome job of getting rid of everything you don't need in your truck! Is that the new 22R hybrid motor I see in there?!
