I finally went and picked up my 88 Raider 2.6/5 speed today.

Equipped with an LSD and a bunch of straight body panels for my Raider. I'm going to be keeping most everything as a backup for my truck until I get it the way I want it, but I should have plenty of odds and ends to help folks out ala Rxinhed!

I'm gonna part out my first vehicle! I'd like to get it stripped down so it is so light that me and a few neighbors can pick it up and set it on a flatbed trailer.

The motor "went bad" according to the PO, while his son was driving it. I don't know what that means. I won't need it, but I'm gonna throw a battery in it and see what it does. If it is still in one piece, I'm gonna make it available to anyone here who wants an extra motor. I'm still planning on building a 4G64 for it.

I may have an extra transmission out of it, too. I'm putting a 88-89 Conquest transmission into my truck along with the motor.

This truck was sitting outside for three years. I got attacked by wasps from the 5 nests throughout it (that I have found so far)...
