can't make up my mind.

Hey guys so i have been sititng here thinking what and where i want to go with my project. I'm starting to realize that this might not have been the starting point i wanted. 350,T400,Manual doors/locks ETC

How hard would it be to locate a 81+ 6.2L/Manual trans,crew cab,PW/PL, maby even A/C (like a fully loaded or semi fully loaded) C30 dually?
I know there is no such thing in canada... Or at a decent price. almost looking for something i can get in an drive and don't have to sink a million dollars into safty with a fairly stright body.

Thanks.

Might go look at this tomoro.http://ontario.kijiji.ca/c-cars-vehi...AdIdZ272726432

Re: can't make up my mind.

Your better off starting with something close to what you want than trying to build it from scratch. I would look outside your area for one that isn't rusted. Here's a clean example of what Texas has to offer. This one is listed for half of the one you posted.

Re: can't make up my mind.

My buddy is looking to buy it today. It's a BBC with an auto tranny. Not exactly what you want, just an example of whats available.
