Its been a while since i posted on here. A buddy of mine found a nice mostly rust free 83 c10 for $300...had a 305/th350 n didnt run. At first i was going to do a body swap(83 body on my 74 frame) cuz my 74 already has an LS swap. But I decided to go ahead n just swap over the LS drivetrain into the 83 n scrap the 74. Its hard to part with my baby as I've had her for over 6 years but she's getting pretty rusty n financially its better just to get another truck with a better body. Since Im busy with my job my buddy is doing the swap for me. As of right now the 305/350 is out of the 83. The whole swap wont be complete until something next year.
