Yeah, you needed this, in a big way (LOL). You’ve nearly got your other 2 rigs running and driving properly!
Do you know of anyone with a sand blaster?
Converting 3/4 tons to disc is not quite as cheap as 1/2 tons. I’d look for a 71 or 72 for disc stuff, if you intend to do that.
After watching Vice Grip Garage and Restored on YouTube, your engine can probably be saved.
I prefer V8 pickups, but that big and heavy lug of a pickup will he just fine with the 292.
I am planning on putting a 292 I my 67 C10, initially to just get it on the road. LOL, my 292 is a .060 over 283.
Carry on man!!!
You are keeping your pickups in a similar theme, nothing usual or common. I really like your diesel!!!

It looks like none of those tires are seated on their respective rims. Would be much easier to load with good tires and rims.
