Well i bought it for 300 dollars and bought Warn hubs, fixed the floor, put in new carpet, installed racing seats, and cut the fenders then painted it orange. It also has a 2 inch coil lift. This week im going to paint the new wheels and install the mud tires from treadwright.com. (http://)(http://)(http://)(http://)

Looks like fun. I have the same seats in my SJ and recently picked up the padding for them due to passenger complaints. They make a surprising large amount of difference in the comfort of the seats after a long day of wheeling.

yea the seats work great as far as holding you in but your lower back gets sore. how much did you pay? where did you get them?
-
Summit racing has them, around 30 a piece. Annoyingly enough the same price as the seats themselves. But you can choose your colors. Check them out at http://www.summitracing.com/search/Brand/Summit/Product-Line/Summit-Racing-Seat-Covers/?autoview=SKU
You have the G-2100 seats (http://www.summitracing.com/parts/SUM-G2100/) where I have the G-1100, so no shoulder straps for me.

I Like the trimming, I did that to mine last year and managed to fit 33 12.5's with just 1"lift.

Looks nice. What did you do for your gas filler?
-
I actually moved the filler and the filler door to the inside of the wheelwell. You can see the door in this pic but this is after I started boatsiding and removing the doors and targa!

Do you have any close up pics of your boatsiding? Or can you go into more detail on what exacly you did?

this is what i did for mine. bought rubber hallway runner by the foot and cut to fit. it worked out ok but i havent mud tested it yet.

This truck was really rusted out and I was more or less building it up to beat on it locally. I cut out the original rocker and floor supports along with the rusted gone body mounts and used some square tubing to reinforce everything. Then I cut and manipulated the tin to roll in and meet the new rocker. I started to mess with the doors when a neighbor of mine decided I had too many vehicles and complained so it ended up being ripped apart for parts.
Your truck is so similar and it's cool to see it being done.

that is nice...I always wondered how big of a tire you can fit with tons of trimming. If I can ever find one in decent shape or at least fixable then I'll have to do the same.
