Re: My 66 GMC LWB
WHOA BABY! do I know about shoestring budget builds Tony.
I search the countryside for parts that I can afford and time being the only thing on my side, I actually find good deals.  Not too long ago I was tripping over TH200-4r transmissions (the grand national type 4spd autos) and now that I want one I can't find one to save my butt. SBC motor parts are so freaking cheap that I question my sanity at times for using my Pontiac motor and I need to pull out the dyno sheet to remind myself why I did.  It is fun to drive these trucks that's for sure. I sometimes wish I could just work on my truck until I get sick of working on it but I don't have an extra two years to try that.
