I so agree.

Mine has a 216 for now. This summer I'm going to put my 348 in it.
Have you picked it up yet? If not give me a call and I'll help you load it. I'll PM my number if you want. I can swing by and get some pics for you too.
This is the first winter in the last 4 that I know of that this truck has sat outside. If it's the one that I think it is, this person has owned it for a couple of years. It sat in the P O's garage across town until this guy bought it.

I'm going to get it Saterday morning maybe around 10-11. It would be great if you could help me load it. It has a flat tire I need to get filled. I'm going to take one off my 64 it might fit. I have a nice dove tail trailer I'm loading it on. Should'nt be to bad I just need to go buy some cable and a comealong maybe some chains. If your free it would be nice to meet you. Pm me later Dave I can come anytime that works better for you. If it keeps snowing like it is I might not be able to get it till spring. When is that anyway?

I found a 1989 S-10 frame and running gear. It's a reg cab long bed. Anubody know if it would work? It's 300? Sounds like a fair deal just not sure if it will work.

My 54 Suburban is sitting on an 89 reg long box 4x4 s10.
Page two has some pics. When you come up to get your truck you can swing by and look at it if you want.

If you end up getting the s10. I'm going to bag mine and wont need my drop springs anymore. I got 4" angled blocks in the rear.

Re: Daverods 52
 
Does anybody know if a 89 s10 has a vin # on the frame? I looked at a frame today the guy said it had a lean on it but I could'nt find a vin # on the frame.

Hi Dave , I thought I better check in and get subscribed so I can follow along and make comments when needed!!!!!
The garage looks the same as it does in the 66 build :lol::lol:

daverod 02-26-2011 11:31 PM

Re: Daverods 52
 
It's got one more truck in it.:lol: Comments are welcome. It's the only way I know what to do.

bubba327 02-26-2011 11:39 PM

Re: Daverods 52
 
Did the 64 get moved outside since it is "done"?

I had a irrigating truck like this one when I was in grade school. Grandpa taught me to drive the tractors and the truck about third grade. Three on the tree but third would not work cuz something was wrong with the synchro gear. It would just grind even when it got double clutched. Second gear was fast enough to chase the cows out of the way

Well it did spend the afternoon outside but it's back now.:lol: It will stay dry.;) and salt free. I'm thinking I might have to increase the size of my garage. Build me one of those Allan lean toos.

That's why I built this.:lol: Hope my Dads Not looking. The plan is to fill it with old trucks, then put some of those Allan lean toos on both sides and fill those too.:lol::lol:

Re: Daverods 52
 
Your lean-to better have a 6-12 pitched roof for Idaho the snow load. Alan doesn't have that problem in Georgia:lol:
