Another crazy idea for my crazy build

I posted before about making my 81 C10 Silverado kind of a '50s/Oriental theme, but the latter part might be scrapped just for some tattoo-ish designs, since it wouldn't be enough space to really be able to get a feel for a Japanese mural in a side stripe, but it's not for certain yet.

But anyhow, the new idea was to take it from 2WD, to AWD. No 4x4, like a Nissan Skyline. I was thinking either a 30% power to the front, 70% to the rear, or a 20%/80% ratio. Thoughts?

AWD would be neat and should make for a decent handling truck.....however the hard part will be getting it that way.

Yeah, I kinda figured, but I was thinking, if my frame is like my truck, then I may have some place rig one up for AWD. Almost everything under my truck looks rusted as hell. But time will tell.
