This is one of those pictures that your family will see and say, I remember that truck. One of the best kind built.

Thanks for the compliments guys! I did a frame swap about a month before I deployed, in my buddies backyard and in the wet cold rain. I had a good 4x4 Frame with a 390, and than that truck was running a 302, that despite it's low milage was very week from spending years sitting. The rust was so bad on the other truck that all the wiring was gone. So on my weekends and spare time I did the swap by myself, except for the help I got here, and 10 minutes of man help putting the new cab on.

As it sits now, but it is going back down to the frame when I get home! Didn't get everything done that I needed to, like the POR 15 to the frame and suck. The body line is a hair off, I have bad fron PS cab mount, and I need new rubber under the cab.

I know what its like I did all the work by myself too when I did a cab and bed swap. My brother was the guy who helped me for 10 minutes setting the cab on :lol: Looks really good I wish I could find a 302 4spd 4x4 frame to swap my body on.

Rubiranch your truck amazes me with every picture I see of it. It sure is one nice looking rig esepecially with that camper in tow to boot.

The barn we built it after A tornado took out our other one and the back of our house back in late 93 or maybe spring 94 :hmm: I chose that spot for the barn wanted it in the picture. And gave it that nice rustic look that I was going for.
