it was a fun trip, i borrowed a 2nd trailer from a friend and my brothers truck. my dad came along to drive the 2nd truck, which was awesome because i don't get to hang out with him much these days. great scenery too.

. . . they've changed the way it works, but it STILL works !!!

i think i was having trouble because all the pics on my iphone are named "image" so maybe the site couldn't handle the same filename???

Nice looking truck. It would almost be a shame to part out the blue one, it looks pretty nice.

Have fun with it.

both were originally small block trucks. my initial plan was to dismantle the long bed, get the short bed on road worthy with the 396/400 (no major upgrades), and part out the rest of the lwb.

but as i look them over i'm re-thinking... the lwb has 5-lug disc brakes and sway bars i'm going to swap out with the swb 6-lug drum suspension, get the lwb road worthy and sell it as a driver.

for the swb i'm thinking replace with original gold interior, 350/350, static drop, and some of these... i'm open for comments/suggestions on everything!
