looks real good. looking forward to your write up.
Been awhile since I've work on either one but don't remember them being that hard to do.

wow, need to come down your way and check out the progress. If things here go as planned, I'l be doing the same thing as you. Not with the doublers and 4l80, but with a crew shortened and lots of work to do....

Gotta love craigslist. Found a 79 dually with a sweet running rebuilt 350, 4 speed/205, plow, flatbed and 4.56s for $300. Found a 4wd crew, find out tomorrow if it's still available for $500, and a complete rolling chassis 89 2wd crew less 454 for $500. Just need a short box.

i'm coming your way if you buy any and need to sell any crew cab parts...! Binghamton isn't too far...!

 

[b454rat]

I think I missed out on 1 crew, but I keep finding them!! Trying to sell stuff so I can get at least one. Really all I want is a good frame and cab, everything else I can get or already have.....
