That's the story of my life! My truck has turned into the same project, so I love this thread.

I wanted to just replace the old Quadra jet on my 454...then maybe manifold....then, why not just pull the motor and freshen it up....

that turned into a full block up rebuild after boring .030 over....

THEN Well I have the motor out maybe I should do rust repair...

Now I have a fully disassembled Cab in my garage on a cab stand...

THEN well, this is a 2WB and my buddy has a lifted 4x4 frame from a '66 he wants to get rid of...

So, a full restore swapping a '77 cab to a '66 frame all started from a carb swap...
