Not gonna be too much of a build, but it'll undergo a mild transformation, so I figured I'd throw up a few pics. This is my son's first vehicle, picked it up for $500. '98 Sport, V6, auto, crappy paint, but it's got a sunroof! :eek:nethumb: Also came with a brand new stereo and speakers.

Already swapped wheels on her and removed the butterfly seat covers and steering wheel cover. I was a lil worried about how the seats would look underneath, but they're like brand new!

Drop parts are on the way, also trying to track down some fender flares. The center console is the flip up seat style and it's a lil messed up, so we'll be swapping that for a floor console.

Next step is a satin black paint job, cheap, easy and helps hide the minor imperfections.

Here's how she looked when I brought her home:



Threw on a set of 16" sport wheels that I had in the garage (that's the nice thing about owning multiple dakotas, plenty of spare parts lol):

that looks SEXY! nicely done :) cant wait to see the final result! are you going to do the rims and make it murdered out??
I vote mudered out. It's looking really good. Something to think about if I come across a beater.
nah, its too played out.................:sorry::D
Paint is just about done, next weekend I'll give it a final wetsand and buff. I'll get more pics then, of all sides of the truck. Need to paint the handles and trim too. But she's all back together and on the road. :D

Thanks. I'll probably throw the old set from the R/T on there, one of 'em has a crack, but it's not too noticeable.
done anything else on her?
Not yet, been sick and the weather has sucked. My priority right now is the R/T and then I'll get back on the '98. Altho, I do still need to do a final wetsand on her the next time I have some decent weather.
haha yep weather sucks around here... idk about down there but its going to be in the 60s in a day or two... do you have a thread for the R/T? i wana see all whats goin down haba
