nic55kel Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 Well guys the old 80 Flareside 4x4 finally made her first trip on the road in many many years...probably more than 10 from what I’m told. The truck arrived here in ‘07 and was barely driven after that, and was then parked to rot away. First fuel fill-up and trip to the car wash, about a 25 mile round trip. Still needs a bunch of work...lights and gauges fixed and of course some rust, but she’s otherwise on the road. Wow! so nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going to see a guy today about getting the rust spots fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I first fired this thing up not one single external light worked. The clear signals light up well...I can’t remember ever buying orange 1157’s before.

FuzzFace2 Posted May 30, 2021 Share Posted May 30, 2021 Good job, Cory! It looks great. Well done It feels good when you work on something and it works out dont it. I know none of my gauges worked, did not try any lights before I pulled everything for the rebuild. So I had nothing to lose if they did not work on first try LOL Dave ---- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
