Re: Well it Begins
Thank you Jrdv
I will as soon as I pry the keys outta my wife's hands lolol I will take a few more . Andy4639 Bodywork relocate the gas tank , It has a newer tilt steering in it but it is dodge at best I have being talking to Dart about a small block 427 or a 383. Trans I would like to upgrade to an Auto or a NV4500, T-case is a NP205 . I would rather have a highway truck so I may change the t-case to a lighter one .... that I am undecided on . It has a lift already so I am fine there new shocks= gas ones And last but not least new rims and tires |

Re: Well it Begins
Wait, an idea roxx, maybe the wife won't actually drive it but you can spend money and really build it for her and she will let you, cool plan....Honey taking your truck out for a spin again, don't want it to sit to much, have to keep the bearing and seals lubed. Worth a try, if not buy the other one too if you can.

Re: Well it Begins
I like the camo paint job, I had a hard time spotting it in all the snow! Great looking truck you have there...

Re: Well it Begins
Well you have more snow than us here, only 2 feet but did get -37c last week, not nice. Snow is fun out 4x4ing though. Couple of trucks out on some lakes already too, heard there was 8" of ice on most, I will wait a bit.
Waiting to see the deal you make with Momma on the truck.
