just a little of a update, I've got about 5k on swap and its going good, so glad i did this and will be starting another one shortly...grounds have been the only real issue so far but other than that its been pretty awesome

it took me a while to get it fully road worthy, probably 2 months, but been a good time either way, i drive it everywhere, this winter I'm going to fix the a/c, but I'm still trying to find a bed so i can get it painted. then its on to the 78 c10

Well, alots changed, dont know if any of ya are still here, but I moved to tn, in the process of moving the oil pump stopped and the block seized up, so I pulled motor and bored and stroked it to a 383, I'm in the process of putting it back in...kinda hard remembering where everything goes, but taking it nice and slow
