Re: 84 Crew Cab Rebuild

you could basicly hotwire it for the trip just put power on the ignitioncoil the feulpump if it has one and the startermotor

as for indicators turn oprn the window and stick youre arm out to go left and have someone in the car for the left turn , just drive inside roads and try not to stick out to mush to the lawinforcementofficers (nice scrabbleword)

Re: 84 Crew Cab Rebuild

Well well well long time no see, Life got in the way.
this project have been on the back burner for a long time now because of time and Money. I bought a 92 body that i fit but didnt like it. so have bought a 84 single cab. Little rust and mostly complete missing the top lights and other stuff but thats fine.

Picking it up late this week.

The crew cab body has been scrapped a tree fell onto it back in mid 2013.
the bed will be taken off and this will become a Ramp truck for my Auto repair buissnes

That sucks to hear about the dually. You had a lot of time into that. I am sure the single cab will be just as nice when your done with it though.
