We are sorta in the same boat.

My 72 swb stepside has been in my garage for 10 years, 8 of which I just stepped around it. Mine also has a lot of rust and rear springs.

I have the front end off and I'm currently working on the heater. Good luck!

Thanks. Oh I bet NY is tough.....I drove up through there last April on a VT ski trip. Beautiful country! Stopped for gas in Maryland, NY and the pump was analog. Had a sign "pump first and then pay." :)

plantman: so whats the plans for the stepper?
drop it? lift it? going back to stock? whats your powertrain consist of?

Re: After years in garage transformation begins
 

Well its basically original 250 which I rebuilt in boces in 1990 3 on tree.When it was parked it was rolling on 31 in tires,kind of made it look like 4 wheel drive,so I think a drop is in order.I do have a99 Chevy engine but i really like old school

Tires,drums are off now I'm deciding to go crazy or keep it fairly original...I also own a 67 stepper my grandfather bought new.
