Default Just A Quicke



The day i bought it Minus the hideous topper lol

Getting it up on blocks to put on the dual exhaust DIY kit / cat delete

More on the exhaust kit

3 inch nylon block body lift re-location of lots of parts

Almost a finished product of my own fabricated stainless steel rocker trim. Couldn't find it this wide anywhere and it sure took a hell of a lot of sanding and polishing I'll tell you that I'll never do it again LOL

more SS rocker trim and decals

Badass halo lights

Finished (for now) Project Dakota. 33" RWL Tires & 16"wheels. It has more like a tool box, mud flaps now but this is pretty recent

And here's the quick collage in the title LOL I kept finding more pictures so I figured id add them thanks for checking it out if there anybody is out there looking at it LOL. It's also the 4.7l with auto trans looking to do a 5 speed manual swap and 4.56 gears in the near future.!

Default My 99 that I bought at 15

It's not perfect but I got this Dakota about 6 months ago now and I've been working non stop to get it running and repairing rust and working to get it up to safety. I'm kinda proud of how much work I put in before I even got my license
The day I got it


5 months later

Default Before and After '98

Brother Mac (R.I.P.) gave me his trick just before he passed. I just started on it. Not gonna take it too far, since she's already wearing 172,200 miles.
But elbow grease and a set of wheels and tires so far...Stock level suspension parts replacements and fresh brakes coming soon. All in his name.
