My 89 CC Dually: Double Wide
So this thing became a distraction in the midst of my 1964 swb 'Recycle' project when the motor locked up.
I had done exceptionally well not touching much on this thing after I bought to help maintain my focus (& cash stash) on my 64. It's a 100k mile truck originally from the left coast. Pretty clean truck but was kind of 'cowboy'd' which is a no-can-do for me. Initially it was a stock 7.4l TBI/th400 w/some glasspacks, 1/4 sleeper shell + running boards, & 'Limited Edition' interior mood lights (including custom wiring hazards). I promised myself I would not touch the suspension until my 64 was done but there were some other priorities that needed correcting before I could drive it daily: I yanked the mood lighting to minimize the wiring hazards. The running boards & sleeper were nixed (TY Jon). The glasspacks & cowboy exhaust tips were cut off as quickly as possible. Rear aftermarket bumper was nixed for a Burb/Blazer sport model. Front grille was swapped for a tweaked GMC unit....

It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar..... Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol. |
