I have a project truck I'm trying to repair/ build in to a runner. It is a 7.4L Heavy duty 3/4 ton. Auto trans and ext cab. It was used and abused in it's past owners history. No brakes when I bought it. I replaced the hydro boost, mc, wp, PS pump, alt, grille, and recondition or restore a lot of interior parts. This truck has small dents all over, but surprisingly, no rust or rust through. Solid truck otherwise. I've power washed it over twenty times to cut through all the dirt and grime and have cleaned it fairly well. I would call it fair condition. Supposedly the 7.4L engine is a factory replacement w/ 35K miles.

This website doesn't allow me to post pics with my cell. I'm away from my laptop and home. I do have pics on my FB, not that helps.
