RUSTY First Gen's should be the title

I wouldn't worry about that rust. Just hang on to the steering wheel real tight in case your seat falls through the floor. Funny thing is the rocker surface isin't that bad??

Heres the ole farm truck. Probably can't tell but it's dirty!! Windows haven't been up in probably six years and hasn't had a bath in 10 besides rain showers. One time I saw a fly get eaten by a spider in the corner of the dash

Still starts every day and does it's job though

lol.... Yeah, I was thinking of attaching the seat belt to the roof, but instead I bought another 1st gen.


BTW.... That rocker is about 2 months old.... and hasn't seen the wrath of NJ salt as of yet.

Haha Dar!

Man as crummy as that thing is, I wouldn't change it at all. Every morning we go check water and when something breaks down that girl is on scene. The spider webs in the dash have kinda grown on me . I really don't know how that thing has survived at all. I asked bossman when was the last time the air filter was changed since I was already checking the valves. He told me "ah four or five years, I can't remember" needless to say, I clean it out as well.

Those running board LEDs give off a lot of light. Might have to consider those, great visibility when backing trailers into tight campground spots at night.

I shoulda known by the wheel bearing caps just the tires looked a little big n it looks a little high for a 2wd but the body lift would be the reason :P. Where did you get the lift?
