I got my truck.....actually 1.5 trucks.....I'm pulling off the drivetrain (4x4), suspension and interior off my first truck (the 84, wrecked by a drunk) to put on my new truck (the 82). I'm kind-of in the middle of the big swap at the moment, but it should be out and about again in a couple of weeks....

Well, My Truck needed Body work, a tune up, and the frame really needed to be wire wheeled and undercoated, also i have to repair the floor pans they are rotted, typical ford stuff i hear, but i only paid 900 bucks for it and its coming out great so far, i havefinshed the body work and we are painting it this weekend.
Its going to be my toy, and a work truck for my Landscaping Buisness
As far as car showa, garden city is the only good one i know about thats not all "rice burners", i live in scituate and there are a few places in West Warwick that have Cruise Nights

I was lucky too in that my new truck was only $900 as well, and the body and frame are in great shape--a little rust in the cab corners and fender, but not too much else. The tranny (c6) isn't in great shape, and I wanted the 4x4, hence the swap.
I live in Scituate as well, down in Hope, so maybe you'll see the truck around when I get it going. It's red with a big white stripe down the side, shortbox stepside....
Doesn't look like there are too many others from RI on the board...oh well....
