4x4 Longhorn????
Anybody got a Longhorn Edition thats been converted to 4 wheel drive? I've got a 71 C20 thats been in the family as long as I could remember. The original motor and trans are long gone, so a numbers matching resto is out of the question. Any ideas? Pics would be great.

Re: 4x4 Longhorn????
I have an old friend in Sun Valley,ID that had a Hugger Orange & White one the last time I saw him...no pictures. It's a cool idea,but you know you can still restore your truck to original fairly easily. The numbers aren't real specific like with muscle cars.

Re: 4x4 Longhorn????
Saw one for sale on CL a couple months ago. It was unique because it was even a 1-ton.

Re: 4x4 Longhorn????
 1 ton axles. Painted, hopefully with tax returns this year. I can get the final pieces and be out and about with it this summer.

Re: 4x4 Longhorn????
Here is the 4x4 converted that was on ebay, went for $12.5k.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...m=300512396273 Probably should have bought it for my desert sled dogs. There is a lot to be said for a turnkey truck.

Re: 4x4 Longhorn????
Yes he is parting it out, he has several threads on the parts board. When I picked up the cab, he still had most of it there. I will pm him with a link to this thread.
