Yes! I gave that for mine with a dented passenger fender and needing a rebuild of the tired 350. Well bought!

Nicely done! I spent 2400 on my 78 C10 project truck. Good motor/tranny. Some minor rust. I'd say you got a great deal, congrats on the new truck!

Re: do you think its worth the money i spent

$2000 is good for any decent running and looking 4x4.That one looks like you got a steal.

I would say you definitely bought it at a below market price.

Re: do you think its worth the money i spent

Looks real good to me.

I saw a tv show on tuners (ricers) and they spent like $3000 on upgrades to gain 7HP (yeah seven HP). so you already beat the ricers in thriftiness.
