Build story

This was my first vehicle when I turned 19!
Spartacus was originally black, and mostly stock. Bit by bit, I installed a few things, like the coolant filter, downpipe, and SD seats. At one point the VC gaskets wires melted and fried the IDM, so I replaced them with the newer style.
I also decided to install an RSK, and planned to go 4" up. But with the springs, it ended up being 6! So I got bigger tires, in my young naïveté, and on a rainy afternoon ran off the road, swiped a pole with the whole passenger side, to the point that it was totaled.
I had already bought an 86 F250 for parts to swap the bed and front clip, so luckily it only accelerated the process. Although I also had to swap the cab.
I undercoated the bottom of the cab and the bed, as well as the inside of the bed, then got it painted. It is now just a matter of putting everything back together, which is almost done.
