Pic's Of Project

I just set the cab and clip on the frame. It's a 78 shorty 4x4 frame and this is going to be a mud truck. We have local mud bogs and mud drags around here all summer. Thank's to (MUDDER) maybe I'll get the mounts all setup and get to all the other thing I need to do to finish it by spring. Just felt like posting picks since it looks more like a truck.

what did you have to do to get the cab/nose on the '78 Frame - beside move the rear cab mounts to the outside of the frame

JIM - The pic's where take at my house here in IL. That part of my yard is where my parts trucks are kept. I also have a shed down there I keep this in for now.

ARKRACING - The cab and clip aren't bolted down yet and I haven't bolted the mounts to the frame. I talked to MUDDER and he sent me pic's of the mounts on his. He's the one to ask if you are considering this swap.

MIKE - I haven't decided if the beds staying or not. If I find some decent bedsides it probably will.

Thank's Jason

Jason- Actually that bed might not look to bad once its paint matches the truck. Are you gonna go ahead and paint the bed purple? Good luck...Later Mike

Jason I bet if you searched the for sale forums there would be all kinds of stepside beds. I've seen several there. Its looking good. Just make sure you can get your distributor out.
