Truck to finally get the care it needs. With your help...

BuggTruck


Owned this truck about 2 years now. Original bought for 1500 from a retired mechanic. He only put 12,000 miles over 10 years. I've put 30,000 miles on it myself and have put minimal work in. But i will be putting more work in as time goes on trying to get it in even better shape.
Electrical is my weakness unfortunately which is many problems I've had so I'm learning quickly.

Welcome!  

I like that "With your help..."  And, we will help you.  But you'll be surprised how quickly you learn.

Where's home?  We have a member's map (Bullnose Forum/Member's Map) and I could add you if you'd like.

You are now, literally, on the map.

And you should start a new thread in the main section for your truck.  Add lots of pics, keep track of your work and upgrades, get support, etc.
