Here are some pics of my first projekt. i bought the truck for 75 bucks!!! since this is my first build, i am definitely open to ideas and suggestions. i will not "restore" it, i just want a bad ass daily driver. Let me know what you think... btw i just go a motor for it. 351 Cleavland. Free. i will keep posting pics as the slow project comes along....
Hi Hateraid,welcome....Looks like another candidate for the A-D Truckers sub-forum.Look us up,might see ya there! Watch you don't get any 'organ rejection' problems with the Ford motor! Mind you it's for free,so it can't be all bad!
Nice score man. I am also building a 49 Jimmy as my first project. My only suggestion is go with a 4-link in the back. I'm doing a leaf setup until I get enough money to do a bag setup in the back. Good luck! Have fun!
Maybe you could trade that 351 for a csb, it sure would be easier to install! But, I guess you could dare to be different...Welcome onboard Hateraid.
thanx for the support guys!! i know i am going to get a lot of shit for throwing a ford in there, but i just love pissing people off to much! lol
Wow 75 bones is a steal. I would pay you double for it. And a 351 for free you are my hero. Good luck on the build.
Make that ford work. I would love to see the look on people face when they see it. Welcome to the club
