    Default Some cool pics of a badass rare old school truck

    A good friend of mine owns this, and nearly all of these pictures were taken by me(halway through this meet I let someone else have a go with my camera) I know she may not be a looker, but this 77 extended cab REPU is very rare, and this one in particular is nearly completely mechanically sound:

















    I spy some new lower control arms, springs, and shocks!


    Lastly, 3 artistic shots:







    4 port 13B unknown port wort workk, could be anythnig rom a polish to a street port. Racing Beat exhaust, Webber 51 downdraft carburetor. New lower control arms, Eibach performance springs, and soon to come, Turbo II FC brakes.

    ^^ Yeah, I drew a frame of a man running on each fan blade. That is him running at idle

    I'm glad you guys like it. This one is coming along nicely, and will someday have an outside appearance to reflect its performance. These rucks have 5:10 rear ends, so they top out at like 90 or 100, but they are REALLY quick to do so. They make for awesome stop-light sleepers, of course the owner doesn't race his, but he is going to have a good bit of fun with it when the tires get replaced (he's only ha the truck for about a month and has already done the motor, the suspension, and soon brakes, wheels, and tires).

    The hood, left fender, doors, engine, and transmission are gone though, the bed is full of random junk and the cab is very, very rusty. There are still some useful body parts and dash parts though.

    It doesn't really matter what shape a Repu is in, it's gonna be gangster.

    I miss her alot - This was my first vehicle from my Dad to me. Crit was in need of a very rare 77 so I sold it to him. I am glad that she is good hands and that she is not outside rusting somewhere. I had her in storage for over 12 years. Now its time to move on to my pride and joy! 1977 RX3SP.
