Now that is a good body swap. I hate the look of a truck with no bed in the back, or just some boards. That bed you fabbed up really makes the truck look awesome.

Looks good dude. That b2 looked beautiful compared to the shit here in Michigan! I remember seeing your mounts all rotted out but shit that would have been easy to fix. Does look good having a bed on it. I'm with evan, I don't like trucks with no bed...

Well its time to get back started on the bed. I still don't know what color to paint it either blue & silver or black & silver. Can some one photoshop (whatever) with black on top and silver on bottom? Thanks Brandon B.

Go buy yourself a 4.0 rad, solves all your problems there.

Its harder than that.....I have a taurus 2 spd fan, 4.0 HD rad, and a HD trans cooler. I believe its because the engine doesn't have enough power to push a slug. :annoyed:

Branman: do you have any larger pics of the mockup with the bed on it? I will do a PS for you, the pics are just a tad too small to do a good job. Thanks

That looks nice, where in Mississippi are you? I use to live in Columbus (north, by MSU and the W). Keep up the good work though, I'm sure you can find a better motor for it that won't be so problematic for you.
