88pioneer's 89 elminator


Recommended Posts

Its almost done. Snagged my radiator an pieces from the pick n pull, an got it converted over to open cooling. :clapping:

It was actually really simple to do, and didn't take long. New puller fan and idler pulley are on, an hood is on. Tomorrow it needs the front end wiring finished, an bolt up the header panel an we should be good to go. :yes:

97+ front end is complete. I'm really liking the newer look, reminds me off my old XJ. Swap was pretty easy, and i even got my blinkers and side markers to alternate like in the newer XJ's. Open cooling system works great. Also re did the headliner, and put some comanche club swag on.

Finally got some work done on it again now that the weather is nice. Pulled the bed and found a very clean frame underneath. Also pulled the 97+ parts off, thinking of going back to the old front end. Next to come out is the motor an trans, then some body work. Will get pictures up as soon as we get our computer fixed.

Finally got pictures working again. This is how it sits at the moment. Motor is on its way out, and just the doors are left on it. Next to come out will be the interior, and any necessary rust repair.

 

Frame is surprisingly clean for a Jersey truck

 

 

I also scored most of a black interior for the super low price of $20. Needs a few more pieces and a good cleaning, but there was no way I could pass up that deal.
