Before and after - pics of your truck's new look

It has been suggested this thread be a sticky so we can post one before pic and one after pic of our trucks to reflect a major build or drastic improvement.
Maybe not pics of a new seatcover, but a before and after of a complete interior redo, repaint job, complete engine makeover and such. so, post up and show off your latest incarnation of your baby.
It doesn't have to be a completely finished truck, but try to restrain yourself from posting every step of a build.

Good idea ... always interesting to see before and after ... jenkins.gif as well as a new seatcover (for me )...

When you do post, remember that you can edit it so you don't have a ton of posts.

I was kinda thinking a person could put up their step by step narrative of their build in their own thread on the P&B board (if they want to), pick their favorite before and after pics, post them here with a short description along with a link to the thread.
Or, however it turns out... :D

This is my truck before I started on it back in September 2001. It was originally Raven Black and a three speed.

This is my truck last year on our trip to Kansas City, MO. Got it back on the road in January 2007.

Here's a bunch of pics of my projects for those that don't know me from the FTE website. (I'm not smart enough to post pics on this site!)

LM14, nice Looking Uni project. I think you could drop just about any motor and trans in there, drop it a few inches, do a "speedo shop" logo on the doors and make a decent chunk of change. Also looks like a decent start to a project.

Thanks,
It hasn't been on the road since '86 so it hasn't seen all the salt lately. It's getting a 292 with a 3 speed to start with and a 5 sped as finances allow. The 292 is in the rebuild phase right now.
