i could hit it with a baseball from mine haha. thats the one tho. itll be awhile before mine is done but it would still be nice to see/talk to some other swappers, or hell just squarebody boys in general

grayharville · 04-12-2011, 09:27 PM

thats about 20 minutes away from me, id be there for sure

85burb · 04-12-2011, 11:20 PM

If i could hit it with base ball i would make tons more money then i do now. It is over a mile form me. Just think of how cool the ole burb would be if i had millions. And i would still drive it everyday..... Tho with way way bigger motor.

grayharville · 04-12-2011, 11:33 PM

If I had millions i would still live in a trailer and drive old pickups, that way I would be more attractive to the ladies

hahahaha!

85burb · 04-12-2011, 11:37 PM

HEll if i had a million i could buy a lady.

Any ways sorry for getting so far off subject.....

grayharville · 04-12-2011, 11:50 PM

oh, yeah, back to squarebodies. progress looks good kris, I cant wait to see this thing cruising around.

kSStamp0182 · 05-11-2011, 11:01 AM

alright. finally about to make some progress. been so damn busy finishin up school. got a full front suspension rebuild kit coming in today tho as well as 3" DJM spindles. gonna try and get the wheels back on the ground this weekend so i can roll it up in the shop,

because i got a letter from the city sayin i cant have a non running vehicle sitting in the yard, yeah, MY effin yard..grrrrrr.

but anyway....

got the old ball joints pressed out the bottom & rivets removed from the top. fun fun FUN. lmao. 3 of 4 were factory originals. and the factory GM Lower one damn near took everything the press had to get it out. gonna get the new ones in after i paint up the arms.
supposed to be picking up a 12 Bolt posi in trade for the 14 bolt soon, but i plan on gettin it runnin before tackling that anyway.

AND fabbed up the extension for the motor mount so i can run my A/C compressor in the factory location.
