My 1985 Chevy

Hi guys, this is Josh and it is my first post on here. I have got lots of useful information from this site. I am a tech at a Chevy dealership in Muskogee, Ok so that makes working on this truck a little easier.

Bought this truck for $750 to use for parts. Decided I liked this one better and kept it. So far I have done the following swaps with all salvage yard parts except for the fan and miscellaneous stuff from classicparts and lmctruck:
262 to 305 engine
carpet, interior trim, and headliner (truck had none)
electric fan (jeep fan)
manual doors to power windows and locks
idiot lights to guages
sport mirros to full mirrors
stock steering wheel to 88-94 steering wheel
aluminum wheels to rallies

I also have almost all of the parts to do the tbi conversion but the 87 longbed at the salvage yard was crushed before I could get the fuel tank and lines, so now I am stuck deciding what to do there.
