Re: 1963 Chevy 4x4 conversion

Thanks!!! I didn't do much work on the 63 today, but I did get the rear axle out of the 83. Now I have to figure out how to safely support the 63 to do the swap.

On a side note, my girls had a blast helping out today. My oldest daughter (she's 9) has been asking me when will I take apart an engine I have in the shop (I have a blown 6.2L diesel sitting in the shop) because she wants to help. Well today she, her sister, and Mom got to help. I have another blown 6.2L engine sitting outside that I want to scrap out. The only way for me to load itup in the truck is to take it apart. So she and Mom got greasy taking apart that engine...not too sure who had more fun, but both really got a lot done.
