--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I just bought a 1980 Dodge W200, Its got a rebuilt tranny with a Transgo stage 2 shift kit, 8inch peterbuilt sunvisor, 35 inch tires, 360 motor, glass pack exhaust, Rad out of a 440. I bought it off my boyfriends boss and on the weekends Ive been working on it, We swapped cabs out of a 2wd Dodge D150, that was in pretty mint condition and put that on the blue 4x4. My boyfriend welded a whole new floor for me, (Best welder ever) and now were gonna bedliner the whole floor and back of the cab, for sound detening for my stereo <3 and sometime next week primer the fenders since there blue and cut the rust off the wheel wells on the box and paint it black, and do all the wiring next weekend. Ill post more pics when its done, but heres some of them, a few arent very good cause I took them with my cell phone, but this is it so far. Right now it doesnt have an exhaust system its just running open headers until the exhaust comes. Jesssuuusss does that thing ROAR. Its soooo sexy, Do I ever wish open headers were legal..<3
