Been working on this 85 for a year now. Started out as a 2500. Swapped body and drivetrain over to a SWB 1500 frame. Just need a vision and it comes together.

I can picture my happy muddy bird dog sitting on the seat with a retrieved duck or pheasant in his mouth

>>> Just need a vision......

Wait ! just a Vision ? It always seems to take me MONEY along with vision !

Looks great though. I'm jealous of all that new/clean not scuffed up stuff. Nice work.

Well, of course it has taken some money to do this one. The goal was to build it for less than 6k including the price of the truck. I'm going to be closer to $7,500 when its done, but way cheaper than my 71.

Man that's beautiful! Just curious, what made you go 4L60 instead of a 6 or 8 speed behind that LT motor?
