No fancy frame swaps, clips, fancy paint or LS's are in the cards for Ox, just make it safe to drive, stop the rust, and a decent stance. It came with a 350/700R combo of questionable condition - it's in there but has never moved Ox an inch. It won't start and it has no brakes, a new wiring harness that has not been installed. It's a project someone smarter than me bailed out of.

Hey Zoomin, I'v got the exact truck but 55.1 series no rust in the middle of a LS swap with C4 vette IFS & IRS. I'm in Plano Texas.
I've got some extra parts but none are as rusty as yours
You have a beautiful truck and should be very proud of it!
