Re: 84 Crew Cab Rebuild
Holy crap you have done a lot! Looks good man! I used to work in a body shop about 13 years ago, had to pay off some welding work on a 350 S-10 swap I did. I can definitely relate to you on how drained you feel.

Re: 84 Crew Cab Rebuild
I know what you mean about welding, that is why I had to pay off the work that was done. I am trying to get a little more welding under my belt, and I think this truck is going to be the thing to let me accomplish that. Keep it up and it will payoff.

Re: 84 Crew Cab Rebuild
Man, I know it sucks sometimes but don't stop now. You've already got way too much money and time in it. Atleast get it drivable. Honestly, I couldn't have come close to doing what you have done so far. I never could do wires. Just looking at that harness would have been the end of it. I'd turn it into a BBQ pit! lol
