Whatcha going to do with the old fenders?

Yea the Tonka stickers are great but I'm not going to replace them on the new fenders. I'm not too crazy about the chrome brush guard either. 1-because it's chrome 2-it has some rust on it. The plan is to strip the the rust and chrome off then either flat black or Herculine it. The fenders in the pics are up for grabs so if anyone wants them PM me.

Oh and the doors in the pics are also up for grabs. They're in really good shape except for the passenger side door has some dents that should be able to pop out. They're complete with glass and everything else. The locking mechanisms don't really work. The passenger side works most of the time but sometimes you just have to play with it..

as far as stalling in watter check the distributor cap and battery connctions and make sure your carb isnt sucknig in water

fire fire fire!|||!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

jartbaker

No fire, just sitting in the water, headlights shining in the bushes, lol!

I'll check that on the dist. But I think it must be getting in the carb, as soon as the breather cover is removed it'll start right up.

Here is what I used to have. It's a 1981 Longbox, had 3in suspension and 3in body lift. Ran her on 33s but really sucked the gas because it was only a little 4 banger. I only sold her because when we had our first baby in 88', I couldn't change into 2nd or 4th gear because the car seat sat right in the middle of the bench seat.


The back was all customized that had a fold out bed and mattress, all the camping kit was stored under the bed and even had a tape deck (yes tape deck! We didn't have cd's back then you younger guys/girls) stereo system.


Lost those yellow fog lights in a hurry and replaced then with running lights.


This is what she looked like right before I sold her in 88'

wow wonder where she is now????
