Got my original truck back


Recommended Posts

Thanks for adding me as a new member.

 

1987 Comanche SWB sportruck.

 

I bought this truck new in 1987. Kept it for several years. Didn't need anymore just sitting around the house so I sold to father in law as a yard truck. He passed away on May 31, so I bought it back from mother in law. The odometer shows about. 146k but I had the engine completely rebuilt at about

100k if I remember correctly.

 

There will several things I will be needing to fix this truck up. I am hoping to get a lot of advise to help go thru this.

 

Was going to post pic here but I don't see how to do that.

Ok thanks. I will try to work on that.

 

Some of the initial things I will be working on will be.

 

Floor board on drivers has a few small holes about the size of a half a dollar.

Dash board is cracked up

The full bench seat ( no cut out for the shifter, as the shifter is auto on the column) needs to be recovered. Replaced as the last resort

Need a bracket for the driver side armrest

Need an ac compressor I think.

Driver side maker light

Shifter knob

Front bumper

At some point I need to repaint and try to get the sportruck decals back. Are these still available?

 

I tend to like to do the original look as any and all ideas, thoughts, and theories will be greatly appreciated.

Can someone tell me how to post pictures?

I had trouble at first, too, but here's what worked for me:

 

Got to www.imgur.com and sign up for an account. From there you will be able to upload pictures, either by dragging and dropping or clicking the 'upload' button. You can create an album for the build, which will display as a feed. In the upper right hand corner of each image you will have share options. Click the down arrow on the right, and select 'Get Share Links' - copy the BBC code that is marked for forums, and paste that in to the text line here. That should make the picture show up when it is posted.
