D90 project

[peter sherman]

Still disassembling & progress is slow as of late. I hope to have it on the road by Sept.

Yes my shop is a mess!

OO, im going to be following this. I ALMOST bought into a project 90 when in was looking for a new truck.

 

[eric w siepmann]

Looks good.

110 and a 90. Awesome.

NAS?

 

[peter sherman]

Its not my truck its my cousins! If I added a fourth truck my wife would KILL me!
88k on the truck & I would say 60k are offroad. I am suprised at the condition of it considering it was not very well maintained. That said I have broken 80% of the bolts taking it apart.

The bulkhead doesnt look bad! I cant wait to see it restored. Going all the way back stock or will this be a trail truck?

 

[peter sherman]

I know! The bulkhead is pretty good! I have a spot where the tab for the inner fender mounts. & a bad spot at the bottom [you can't see]
It will have a 4.6 nothing outrageous. 1.4 tc or 1.2 with 4:11's as its locked now. Rt axles in the rear & a short wait for Keith"s for the front. I hope!
Oh ya flat grey paint. You have never seen pinnstripen like this thing had.
Won't be anything trick but I think a nice trail truck.

good call no replacement for displacement. Whyd yall take it apart? Keep in an original color.

 

[peter sherman]

Frame is bad in the rear
engine overheated
tub & other body panels had a thousand holes
basically had been neglected & I was told "make it new!"
