Thanks Keith.

Bought this truck last year and the PO told me it was a 87 4x4 frame that he put the 55 cab and box on. Also told me that it had a 350 ci engine in it and I just assumed it was from the 87. NEVER ASSUME ANYTHING.

So now it has a 76 frame and the motor turned out to be a 305 from a 78 Caprice.

This project is getting worse by the day.
