So I guess I officially got this project started yesterday. Had a lot of things going on lately, and since I haven't been traveling as much for work money has been tighter so I haven't really been able to start acquiring many parts, but I was able to get the 6.0 out of the green truck. Doing all the work in my buddy's garage, 40'x60' with two 2-post lifts and one 4-post. So much better than doing it in a driveway.
I know it's not necessary to pull the rad support out, but I like all the extra room it provides, and it takes maybe a half hour to get it all off.
The blue truck outside. I like this little thing.
Took about 6.5 hours of working slowly and bullshitting, if I'm not at work I work at whatever pace I damn well please.
And why my buddy built the shop.
CJ5 crawler that was on the cover of CRAWL magazine a few months back. (This one was actually built in a 20'x12' shed, I helped do some of the body work)
Hot rod project that was put on the back burner for the crawler to get built.
And the ass end of his '87 RCLB with a Procharged 383 and a 5 speed.
