All joking aside, but what in the hell are you going to do with this thing.
Where the heck did you find it, it looks like its been buried in salt for 20 years.

See this post for what he wants with it (I think he even said he was gonna use the front D60 in his black truck):

its so far gone i'm going to scrap it..

im going to keep the axles, t-case, transmission. im going to take out the cover for the radio because some one hacked mine out. im going to take out the back window and put it in place of my old slider that leaks and has a bunch of racing stickers on it that i used to cover some blemishes.

i honestly like this truck and i can't figure out why..

Paid $450, D60 front is worth 1K. I think I know what he's doing with it.

If the out side looks that bad I whats the guts of those diffs look like? and they are so rusted you would have to blast them to get that rot of them.

That may be true...but that axle in that condition is easily worth $8-1000 in that condition. Try pricing out one in good condition and that price easily doubles.

Hey Tex, are you in the hooch, I left my decoder ring in the other room....

the axles are not rusty actually on the outside and of course there was gear oil inside... they are going to be rebuilt and 5.13 gears are going to be installed..

[miottimouse]

I'm jealous, I can't find a D60 for my '79 250 to save my life! Nice find.

I do have to ask though, why is the diff cover missing almost all of the bolts?

Hopefully it didn't sit too long that way.

And what's with the torch work on the passenger side fender?

Irregardless....*****'n find!

 

[jcduerr]

didnt notice it was missing 5 bolts when i firts looked at it

the guy took them off to see if there was fluid in there when he got it. im going to have my axles rebuilt with 5.13's and detroits when i get this thing in my other truck so i'm not afraid of some surface rust.

it took me 2 years or so to find a deal on one close at the same time i had some spare money, just keep looking like once a week online and you will find one.

 

[Mil1ion]

Nice.... I see it has a free flowing exhaust ...they are expensive .

 

[JBradley500]

oh crap...i forgot some of the best engineering on this truck..there is tin roofing material shoved up in the passenger side wheel well for an inner fender! ill get pics tomorrow.

as for the torch marks? who knows lol. too many cocktails is my guess
