My wife is going to murder me. I am going to put a red bow on it ;)

  Tomorrow night for Saturday morning?  

[Gsmblue]

Yep! She will be sooo happy!

I cannot stress how good this truck is on the outside. I am blown away..

The truck looks great! Bed was replaced, but if it's rust free underneath and runs well, it's a good deal.

[Gsmblue]

Do you think the bed is newer? It is attached well and rust free!!!!

[salans7]

Yep, fenders are 87+, as are the tailgate and the tail lights. You can also tell by looking at the rear upper corners of the bedside, they're more rounded on an 87+ bed. I would guess 87-91 as I believe those years had the red "reflector" on the trim panel and the 92+ had a black "reflector"

Thanks Shaun!

I was looking at tail lights and they didn’t seem right. Now i know why.

So it is a Centurion.  They made some cool stuff.  

[Gsmblue]

Yes!

I can’t wait to start peeling this onion, it will have to wait until the summer as I promised my wife no more truck spending apart from the bronco engine until then.

That gives me plenty of time to make the big long list of all the things I need to do and to start looking for the pieces at breakers yards craigslist and online.

There you go! Ha!

I should be coming through the Bend area tomorrow from the north. I probably won’t have much time because of the weather.

Or I would stop by for a tongue lashing from your wife!

RIP, Dane!  

[swampedout]

Nice score! Cant wait to see more

[Gsmblue]

Once the spring rolls around i will start a project thread.

In the meantime I will say the wife has named this behemoth:

Elyza Dual-little

🤣🤣🤣

Yza is in the license plate, all out vehicles have names starting with an E. And the rest is just punny !

[Gary Lewis]

That's funny!  Or punny!  Love it!
