Thanks guys for the replys! Lift consist of Sky's 4 1/2" perch drop, 73-87 8" soft ride springs Rear has 8" soft rides with a shackle flip. It has a 8.1l vortec/4l80e and np 205 in the truck as you see in the pic's. Springs sagged a little some when I installed the 8.1. I work in the oilfield and stay gone from home quite a bit so it has been a very slowwww build.

Awesome! That's a lot of hard work you've put into it!

At least put that link in your signature.

Where or how would I add that flickr link to my signature?

My old 72 burb! Factory BB, a/c front/rear, tilt, tach, was an original 2wd and I swapped to a 4wd frame. First pic is with 3/4 tons, 12" springs, 3" body lift with 42" super swampers. The truck drove really nice!! 2nd pic is with 2-1/2 ton rockwells, with 6.38'a, lockers front and rear and 44" boggers. This thing was a blast in the river!! I should have some better pics somewhere

Was it an original straight 6 with 3 on the column?

So what are your plans for it?

Not the original color, not sure what color this is?
Originally olive green, might paint it white. or green w/white roof.
It was an original 307, 3 on the tree.
It has a mercruiser 350 in it now with a SM465 tranny.
Yes, actually a re-manufacturer mercruiser boat motor.
The block is from the 1998 so I don't think it has that many miles on it.

I think I'm going to repair the rust and make it a daily.
I want to remove the home made bumpers and install some used bumpers.

The toolbox was made by a boat mfg. actually has a live well in it, how crazy it that?

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
 
Its an interesting color because it seems to be the same as mine. A better pic of mine is one page sooner. I keep getting asked what the name of the color is and i just them the "UK Blue", which works pretty well here in kentucky. I did not paint it, I bought it that way.

I do like the white roofs and would love to see a short step-side painted that way. Please post a pic if you do go with that paint scheme

What do you know, a step-side with a live well and a mercruiser. Are you sure it won't float?
