Brother got a CUCV

[ezoliver]

So my little brother bought a CUCV over the weekend. I went with him to get it, and it seems like a pretty nice truck. Its in good shape and he got a really good deal on it (at least I think so)

Runs good and drives good. Now he just needs to get a build thread going...

Only thing different is the previous owner changed the TH400 to a 700R4.

Oh he says he bought it to motivate me to finish my Jimmy build... I guess I am due for an update!

Looks good, seat looks to have been swapped also.

You can tell by the hubs its a 60.

Ya definitely a dana 60 and a 14 bolt. Also has a rear locker for sure.

Needs to find the correct TV cable bracket for the trans though.... Shifting is a little off.

Nice find, I have a couple of those. I hope to begin a new project with one of them soon.
