Re: '82 Shortbed 6.0 project
That is a great idea. The one by walmart on 69? That is like 2-5 mins from my home.............. And if no one shows there are other cars to look at. Love the idea!

Re: '82 Shortbed 6.0 project
If i could hit it with base ball i would make tons more money then i do now. It is over a mile form me. Just think of how cool the ole burb would be if i had millions. And i would still drive it everyday..... Tho with way way bigger motor.

Re: '82 Shortbed 6.0 project
If I had millions i would still live in a trailer and drive old pickups, that way I would be more attractive to the ladies

Re: '82 Shortbed 6.0 project
alright. finally about to make some progress. been so damn busy finishin up school. got a full front suspension rebuild kit coming in today tho as well as 3" DJM spindles. gonna try and get the wheels back on the ground this weekend so i can roll it up in the shop,
because i got a letter from the city sayin i cant have a non running vehicle sitting in the yard, yeah, MY effin yard..grrrrrr. but anyway.... got the old ball joints pressed out the bottom & rivets removed from the top. fun fun FUN. lmao. 3 of 4 were factory originals. and the factory GM Lower one damn near took everything the press had to get it out. gonna get the new ones in after i paint up the arms. supposed to be picking up a 12 Bolt posi in trade for the 14 bolt soon, but i plan on gettin it runnin before tackling that anyway. AND fabbed up the extension for the motor mount so i can run my A/C compressor in the factory location. ![]()
