Nice... looks like someone put some time into it. Just needs a cleanup and some air in rear tire to drive!

The guy I got it from said his brother did the conversion. He did a heck of a job. It's been on craigslist for a while. Guess he didn't get much interest in it.

Re: funny looking truck

Got the flat fixed and started to buff on the paint a little. Looks like it will clean up decent.

Yea it has a 350 center bolt heads. Edelbrock intake and carb, headers but it has issues. I will probably pull it and tear it down to see what's up with it.

Re: funny looking truck

It's different, but in a cool way. The only thing I would change is bigger wheels. I would have snatched it up in a heart beat. If you ever get tired of it, I'm sure you would make a decent profit from it.
