Pretty sure his plans are to freshen the 74 up w/a mild restoration/touring goal.

I plan to do the same thing to the dually that I did to the 74. Fresh suspension w/drop, exhaust, hidden hitch, exterior trim/lenses, & clean-up the interior w/some fresh NOS stuff. Looking for Burb buckets & a console too.....

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

Cut and buffed the passenger side of the truck.

Need to paint the rest of the old girl though.

Nothing. I'm finally done with my truck. I've just been driving it around and enjoying it. I'm going to use it to tow for the first time tomorrow.

Scoti is right on. I have been thinking really heavily about doing an LS swap on a square, so I think I have found the right truck to do it on. I ahve always really liked this truck, and am pretty tickled that it's mine. I know it was hard for Scot to let it go, but I think it went to a good home.

I have a been thinking about putting the black interior from my '87 parts truck into the '74, less the dash parts and door panels (leaving the '74 pieces intact). Anyone have any thoughts there? Also looking for a pair of 15x7 aluminum slots for the front to complete my set.

Scoti is going to have a pretty sweet project in the dually as well. He will work his magic and we probably won't even recognize ol' Clifford......
