This has been great to read up on. I got on this forum a while back and have hit it up periodically since with little reading and a few questions. My project has been very slow going since I picked up my grandpas old farm truck in 2013, a 66 GMC K1000. I found your thread while seeking axle swap info and it took me a long time to find it again. I love your burb, especially the early hood, and would kill to find a decent one for my truck. I hope you managed some time to get back to it, see it's been a few months since you posted an update.
