Re: 1972 Medium Olive SWB Driver Build-“Chester”

So I haven't updated this thread lately as I've been out enjoying the truck this summer/fall.

However I believe the motor is starting to get a little tired and my throw-out bearing is getting pretty noisy. I'll probably replace the bearing but I've been looking at motor options. I've seriously considered going a simple route and putting in a 355 crate motor but as of now I believe I'm going to move forward on the LS swap in this truck. I've already got the motor, transmission, and fuel tank so I might as well.

I'll make my decision around Christmas as I'm getting a lift installed in the garage in a couple of weeks. I'm pretty excited about that.

Here's a few pics of my excursions over the summer.

I purchased another foxbody Mustang to flip but decided to keep. I'm having fun with it as well.



Drove the truck to TN for the truck nationals with a group.









Used it to move the inlaws



A couple of car shows



And overall driving the wheels off of it
