This is the j10 I picked up a while back. I am going to build it up a little bit for towing. It has 40k original miles on it and I bought it from the original owner that lives right down the road from me. He bought it from the local dealership and never drove it, its only had 2k miles put on it since 2005! I have bought j20 axles, springs, wheels, and a np208 to swap in all from a 81 j20.

not nearly enough! the guy never drove it because it was a pioneer and not loaded. i dont really know what it doesnt have though, everything works including the am/fm radio and the ice cold a/c!

The black trim isnt factory. rocks had chipped the paint on the fenders and behind the rear fenders so i sanded it all smooth, taped it off and painted it black. It turned out damn good for what i got in the paint job. I just dont have the money to repaint the whole truck yet...

Very nice!
It is hard enough to fine on with an good body. let alone with the rest in that good of condition . You Should bring it to the FSJ invasion at Uwharrie on June 9th and 10th.

The only options that I do not see on it are bucket seats and power window and locks.
 
Dude that thing is nice and clean! Wanna sell me the flares? LOL j/k:beer:
 
Pimpin chad. I was a pretty big fan of this truck when I saw it. Good idea to swap in the 208 too. Haha, just never expect it to do a burnout.
 
Wow. I have never seen one in that good of shape; especially the interior.
 
well i cant lie the paint looks better in the picture than it really is. i am going to get the bed lined and the entire thing painted asap so it will match the interior!!!
 
Friggin' SWEET! Gosh!
