So I sold my pricey truck and the Comanche assumes daily duty.

Now for a name. I've never named a vehicle, but I hear it's good luck. Suggestions?

So far here's some preview photos. Just how I got it, Ultra wheels and Nexen tires and all...

So far I've only done a couple of things, and while it is the daily I can't go too crazy.

I started with fixing a coolant leak and repairing the headliner.

Very nice! :thumbup: Off to a great start.



There was a white one recently on craigslist. It was 2WD and solid. I thought about it but I have way too many projects.
 
The last owner only had it a couple months but it seemed to be a decent truck for her, it looked to be in pretty good shape and should be a solid start.
Yeah they maybe put 1000 miles on it.

Today a seatbelt replacement happened. It was a horrific mess. Bottom bolt owned me, rusted solid. Welders, melty stuff, broken bolt, drill and taps. Such a scramble to get it done so I could drive home, didn't take a single picture.

Next I really wanna get some power steering in it. If anyone has parts for that in Portland, hit me up!
