Here's my latest project, a 71 GMC 'Burb, 4x4, 3/4 ton, factory tilt, tach, roof AC, and had buckets. It's got a transplanted 400 SBC w/350 trans. Not sure I'm real wild about 400, but 350s are plentiful, OR a GM crate 383 would be awesome, but $$$! I've already done a 700R4 transplant into my 71 4x4 PU, so that's also on the block. It'll go up at least 4" for a lift with some nice rims. I've got some late model Dodge PU seats with the intergrated seatbelts that are also going in.

Question, since I live here in AZ, AC is critical! Anyone with the roof AC tell me how good it does cooling? Should I consider adding an under dash unit running off the stock comp/condesor?

Looking good!

We are still working on hooking up the rear compressor on out Burb project so it will be spring before we will know how it works.
