My 82 Laredo

Post by Jeeplovingirl »

This is my 1982 Laredo, She will be my first build of my own. I have been a die hard fullsize girl since my first truck which was an 89 wagoneer. I am currently stripper this girl down and building her up to be the badest beast on the road I just picked an AMC 360. She also has awesome features like the original mic and cb.I am do almost all the work on my own so I high high expectations for her.

That's a sweet start! Keep that radio/CB combo- that's a rare feature that is hard to find in-tact, or in working condition. :-bd :-bd I've only seen two in person in the past 15 years- neither one worked, but I sold 'em for a pretty penny on flEaBay.
