Default 1990 pickup was my first car. Now a wannabe collector

My cousin bought a white 2WD 1990 pickup brand new. In 1998 I bought it with a bad engine for my first car. It was the first engine I even installed. I loved that pickup.

Fast forward I became a ford master technician and engine master. Specializing in the power stroke diesel. Put in my tenure at the dealer and then later started my own shop. Now I知 in the alignment to spend a little time on thief痴 that I like. Things that make me feel a little younger.

I purchased a 1992 white 2WD pickup. Working (with the help of a body man friend) on the bed. Eventually I値l paint the entire truck.

my first project was the rear bumper. To my knowledge: the rear bumper was an option. Back then most bumpers (I think) were aftermarket. And today you can稚 find anything but a hard line goofy looking I値l fitting bumper. So my buddy the body man thought a tundra bumper would fit and look good. Well, he was correct. You have to fabricate brackets. The bumper fits very well.




Here is mine mocked up.

I have another Isuzu pickup being brought to me from Missouri that I知 going to fix up. I値l keep you guys posted on these. I hope to own a bunch of them one day.
