paranoids kinda expo build

[paranoid56]

only one i could find, its a bit dark but gives you an idea.
all the wires come in from the relay block in the loomed wire to the left. i also used the proper plugs for the switches (except for that last one as they were short one plug)

[SDDiver5]

Very nice work. You clearly know your way around wires and electrics. My biggest weakness.

Keep the pics coming!

Looking good. How about a pic of the LT '85?

 

[paranoid56]

finally got around to install my 1" body lift. (wanted a bit more tire clearance and didn't feel like tubbing the firewall.)
also added a bed rack for a future RTT. but not sure if i am liking it or not lol.
with the new rack

and body lift installed. so nice to not hear the tires hitting the firewall anymore lol

To the OP: I'm curious as to the diagonal bar at the tailgate area - Good looking truck

I think he just hasn't bolted the anti-spread bar in place before the picture was taken.

 

[paranoid56]

yep, not bolted in place. as i have bed side mounting system, it doesn't fit and i am still on the fence about keeping it. so if i keep it, i will cut and weld that to make it fit. I am still unsure on the cage setup.

 

[pray4surf]

Shoot! I didn't realize you sold the rack...

Paranoid - what mods were necessary to fit the doublecab? Cutting a bit out of the two horizontal bars running then length of the bed. Seems just like yesterday I sat down with the fabricator to have that rack built. Glad to see it's found a new home.

Don't want to hi-jack the thread, but that Vega looks damn nice for a 43 year old car! You gotta love California! Everywhere else they just rusted away to nothing before the 80's came around! Good luck with the build.

 

[paranoid56]

yea, i just cut it down, sleeve the inside and tig welded it up.
pray4surf, if you are interested shoot me a price as i am open to sell it.
