I just joined this group and I'm excited to have found it! :D

I am the owner of a 1992 W350 Regular Cab that I've been doing a full restore on.

I stripped it down to the frame and have rebuilt everything...and I mean everything except for the engine sense it only had about 230k on it.

Right now it's in the shop getting all the dents pulled out and a fresh coat of paint, plus an undercoating of the Herculiner

The flat bed I just finished cutting the bad steel out and doing a restore on it and adding all LED lights

I'm now looking around for a 4" Turbo back, aftermarket air filter, 3200 governor spring, 60 lb valve springs, tweaking the smoke screw, bumping the pump, modifying the fuel pin and maybe putting some 90 HP injectors in. It's all hear say now until I get the body finished and back on the road.

Any suggestions or ideas are excepted as I want to use this truck but not abuse it!!

Hey fellow noob, I'm interested in seeing some of the pictures as well. Also, have you had any painting estimates yet? I'm trying to get a feel for pricing to get mine sprayed as well. I've heard in my local area $3000 for just paint and no body work and not spraying the bed...
