Thanks...I would sell it but you would probably mess yourself if I told you how much I had into it. I have kept track of basicly everything. I am sure there is a nut or bolt but everything has been tracked.
 
Wow, this thing looks like it came straight out from the showroom floor. Take good care of it.

Is it an original GA vehicle?

It's a Cali truck. The pictures are deceiving, the body is not that clean. It is straight but it does have paint problems. It will get a paint job some time this summer.
 
Just a quick update. The pinion angle is set and the thing is sooo smooth. There is no vibrations or weird driving issues.

The brakes are still soft so I need to bleed them or go ahead and do the hydro boost which is what it really needs.

I am going to go ahead and twin stick the transfercase I think. I just cant really come up with a better alternative. I tried to retain the stock shift but the shifter throw is so small it is hard to get it in the gear you want.

The engine still needs some tuning. There is something just not right about the carb. Wish I could go ahead and do the MPFI.

ORD ended up doing me some 1/2" zero rates which set it up just right.
 
Thanks man. It is still a work in progress, guess it always will be. I got the front drive shaft mounted and will be ordering a twin stick setup for the 205 tomorrow. I waited for the front drive shaft to make sure I didn't have any other vibrations. It is smooth as silk even with the front hubs locked.

Contemplating a Cummins conversion.
