Do you have to cut grass or even own a lawn mower

Yes I had grass in the backyard of that house. I have been in the desert since I was 3 & hate it. I have a little bit of grass in the front yard of the new house & will have more out back someday. Really wish I lived somewhere that trees & grass was natural.

 

[John in AZ]

No, not me! Had a push mower in Sacramento for ~2 years tho.
But many do tho. :/

After the soil is disturbed goat-heads (bullheads) tumble weeds
(Russian thistle) desert broom and other -junk- grows instead of
the original stuff. Those that brought their "wet ideas" with them
tend to make a big mess.

--------------------

John, yes the bed and frame and suspension are all still intact.
Thought about a pickup-bed trailer but prob'ly won't mess with it.
The front has new disc brakes on it and perfect for an F100 Bump.
That was something else I thought I might get was a Bump to fix
up but decided to fix-up a '91 Bronco instead.

Long or short. Hard to tell from angle but betting on long hoping for short.

Here's mine. This is what it looked like when I bought it, I've made a few changes with more to come as money permits. The plan is a "rolling restoration" because I use it a lot but want to end up with a nice truck.



Here is a link to the rest of the pictures.

Hey Supercab guys I found a donor cab, cab only with no rust other than very little on the floor pans. $400 delivered sound reasonable?

No doors, but back glass, rear windows, and dash/cluster are included.

Late 70's supercab in Arkansas. What stuff you talking about besides location? I have a SC in need of a bed and cab so between my rusty inside cab and this one I should have a good cab. I was just wondering if $400 was reasonable since I cant really find many donor cabs without buying a whole truck.

 

[Fellro]

In this neck of the woods, it would be cheap, can't answer for you area. There is one place seems to think they are worth 1500 around here...

 

[Derfus]

I can get a whole truck for that around here!!! Dang!! If anyone is interested in making a road trip to Arkansas I'll post up finds as I run across them.

A few pics of her while she's still mine

 

[John in AZ]

While shes still yours? Getting rid of her? seems like a great truck.

^^^Sold...but never forgotten.

 

[m78]

Your going to wish you hadn't.

 

[John in AZ]

Must have traded it in on that new truck? Well good luck with the new endever.
John

 

[TexasRho83]

Well, no I sold her outright to help pay for my mom's car she desperately needed. I posted about in general discussion - anyway I hope I'm still allowed to be in the Gen 6 club

 

[John in AZ]

Sucks to have had to sell it but the right decsion. Your mom should always come first. There are lots of trucks around & later on you can buy annother cant say the same about making life better for family
& always welcome by me.

I did a search but cant find anything so I figured I'd ask here. I pulled the back windows out of my truck (yes, it was a sin to chop it up) and want to swap them in my donor but dont know how to get them out without screwing the cab up (like I did pulling the first set out). How in the world do you do this the right way?

 

[Fellro]

Are we talking quarter windows, or rear window? Similar action either way... take the chrome-ish strip out, then push the rubber seal over the lip (screwdriver may be required...) and they will come out. The rear window can be done easier by using a rope to hold the seal a little better away from the frame. I'm sure someone else will be able to explain a bit better...
