Well, I guess I could say a little about me..more so my truck. It's an '85 Nissan 720 King Cab with a five speed Z24 an older gentleman at my church GAVE to me. Yeah, gave. It wouldn't crank, wouldn't even turn over. It needed a new battery and power steering hose. After sitting for a few months, the carb was clogged and the float was stuck. Also, when you'd turn the key to the On position gasoline would start pumping and flooded through my valves all the way to my oil pan. So, we got a new battery, new power steering hose, replaced all the vac lines, cleaned out the carb, and sanded the float.
Day one!
Next, we removed the camper shell and began working on the rust. We also began debadging, removing the pinstriping, and removing the side molding.
After that, we started on the interior. APC white face gauges, Sunpro tach, Pilot "racing" pedals, one-of-a-kind billet shift knob, seat covers, steering wheel cover, 10" Infinity PS-10, Pioneer GM-520t, and a JVC head-unit.
After that we continued to kill the rust, sand, primer, etc. and added an OE roll pan, Flowmaster exhaust with 3" tips, ProNet ProRunner tailgate net, and removed the gun rack.
That's basically all that's been done so far. I still plan on paint, a metallic red, new wheels, new seats, a spray/roll-in bedliner, and a few engine goodys.
