(16,351 bytes) Heres where the truck sat all summer(2000) in my dads pole barn, the pole barn was brand new so he blames all the oil spots on the floor on me. (30,308 bytes) Took care of all the rust on the floor and gave it 2 coats rust treatment and 2 coats paint. You can see my Just thought id throw in a pic of the floor b4 the rust was sraped down and painted over. The truck had 2 Kmart bucket seats in it when we got it and had another seat in it of some kind before them. The factory bench seat was before all of them. The problem is that no one patched the holes from the previous seat(s), so a lot of water got in and was starting to eat it away. I got it under control though. (37,130 bytes)

Name: Brent Marsh
Notes: Truck was from CA originally, bought it for $75 and restored it to original in 2000. The 4 banger runs better than ever and its the envy of all the guys at school. Painted it the red that dupont says it was from factory when we sent em the paint code. Tonneau, custom interior, JVC CD player and infinity/pioneer speaker system. The bed is Hurculined and of course you can't forget the chrome rims.
