thanks for all the welcomes guy,and I appologis for my absence,there are places further north,and a hell of alot colder then here,I think we are pretty lucky weather wise these days.

thanks tim,yes I think I will go with at least 3:55's in it,I still may put an AOD in it,but if not the C4 will get a shift kit and probably 2500 stall
thanks ben,its good to be back around.I have been busy with the house,son and getting married this year.hows things with you?and congrats on...
I still have some work to do under the hood,install the msd blaster coil,fms 9mm wires and separators and tidy up the rest of the wiring.
I took all the front sheet metal off the truck,sandblasted and painted the aprons and rad support,not too sure I like the paint I used for the aprons.but its...
engineI drove the truck all through the summer of 2008,only replacing all the brakes due to how long the truck sat.I put dynomax 1 5/8 long tube headers on the factory 302 and 2.5 inch exhaust with 40 series flowmasters.
new tires,235/60/15 on the front on the factory wagon wheels
and...
picturesI bought this truck after a long search for a 4x4,i had all intentions of making a 4x4 out of this one,but when I got it home I just couldn't do it.it only had 71000 kms on it and was very tight and clean,the box was repainted at one time,the rest of the paint was original,so I decided...
hello everyone,I joined here a while back but haven't been on much.
I thought I would share a few pictures of my truck and talk a little about my build.
it isn't a bad looking truck by any means,but from what I have read from you guys talking about the seller I guess it would have to be seen in person before any cash was dropped.the carpet does look green,or faded/stained enough to have changed color.just seems strange that there are that many...
looking good.nice job of fixing the doors,what a mess the po made of that.thats why there is the factory am radio in my truck and thats how its going to stay,it doesn't work and the 40series flowmaster would drown it out anyways.
yes I'm a long way north,but I'm sure we'll be able to get us some canadian members on board.today its -22 celcius,tonight it will be -27 with a windchill of -38.but its winter and is to be expected.ontario is getting it worse then we are.thanks for the welcomes.
I may have to take you up on an offer like that one day,and I gaurantee thats all he paid for that truck.one of those guys thats trying to make his fortune by driving south and buying up trucks and selling them up here.there are some guys up here doing it and charging reasonable prices.I would...
thanks skandocious,I have seen the light lol.anytime ben,the owner has a seriously high price tag on it,fairly high miles on it.the good is it came from down south,so its not rusty,and the engine was done at ford at 125000 mils.and it has a 9 foot fisher plow on it.but at $12500 its more then...
thanks ben,I hope it is as relaxed as you say.I was really unpleased with the post about selling my 4x4 being deleted.and the one following to keep the conversation going.childish I guess.no matter we can still chat about the best looking trucks ever built.I have to say that 96 you have is some...
friend of mine is building a dentside and he has a 327 chev with a 700R4 tranny,the bought the truck as a basket case and is slowly putting it together with what he has,the sbc fits nice,the indent into the firewall for the 300 is a perfect fit and he bought a set of headman headers that are...
