Even though the truck is in excellent condition, we are doing a frame off. we will be doing a frame swap because my boss wants it to be 4wd.

here is the frame we picked up from the sandblasting place today, its a 79

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds

Great looking truck Kris. If it were me, I wouldn't cut it up but it's your personal choice.

What shifter you running there on the floor?

It's a hurst on top of a built turbo 350 mated to a 12 bolt posi with 4:10 gear. Up front small block 355 with stock heads worked loppy cam 750 holley. All original paint body interior and 62k miles. Thinking of getting a 468 or this 502 punched out to 509 at the shop I deal with.
