Here you go it's an 1984 prospector royal SE w150. It has an all stock drivetrain with 112,000 miles. Stock 360 fac.4bbl 727 208 for mods all i have are 3/4 ton springs and 31inch cooper all terrains and straight exaust with a glass pack. This truck did not look like this when i got it, i spent over a year before i got my drivers licence to restore it. It has two new fenders, new paint, one new rocker and one new cab corner. I painted all the interior trim too. Oh ya it smokes rice burners!

That's one clean 84.It looks great. I think you should hold off on the subs, and buy a set of 33s. But I guess thats cause I'm old. Looks great

i was going to lift it more with some 33's or 35's but then i would take it off road to much and screw up my paint, so i bought an rc trailrig ;D oh, and my subs and stuff my friends just gave me so i decide to put them in. Thanks for the comments

Well, i guess i'll do a little update on my truck. It now has 124,000 miles on it and i have driven it everyday for 2 years now. Looks the same except i have some new 31" cooper mud terrains on it now. IN the past 2 months i have done a full brake job and front wheel bearing on it. with new milemarker hubs cuz when the wheel bearing went it ruined one. I still might decide to lift it but im undecided.

Well its obvious youre not from the northeast. My 84 rc parts truck has the cleanest body of any 84 around here, and you should see all the bondo and rust on this bastard! You midwesterners have no idea how lucky you guys got it out there. If you brought it out here you could easily sell it for twice what you have into its just for it being so clean for its year. Plus you could tell someone from shoreline its a one ton with a big block, single-handedly won world war II and has a frame made out of solid gold and no one would be the wiser. People out here are stupid when it comes to trucks.

I really like that truck.  I say if you lift it, keep it small and run 33's.  That truck looks almost perfect like that, I say a 3 or 4 inch lift and 33's, would look damn good

Thanks Ram 1985Custom i was going to go with 4" lift and 33" bfg mud terrains. but........

I was in a rollover accident two days ago, i rolled it onto the drivers side. sadly the bed and cab ar not saveable. I guess it gives me a reason to rebuild it even better this time than the last. If anyone knows of a rust free 8' box i am looking for one.

Oh man.......very sorry to hear.  Everyone was okay, right? 

Sorry about the truck man.  Almost brings a tear to my eye.  You should defintely build it back up.  Even if it takes you awhile.  Any details on what happened?

It looks like it used to be a nice truck.

If that was your first attempt....can't wait to see it next time
