the old trucker:
Hey Gror, it looks like your really tearing her down. How's the wood. Much rotten. The engine compartment looks a lot cleaner than some I've seen.
Also looks like you have lots of room in your garage to move around & do your repairs comfortably.
I'm sure your going to do a great job with it, according to the way your taking everything apart. With a fresh coat of paint & a few parts, she'll look like a million bucks!!! Keep up the good work & keep us posted.
The Old Trucker 10/4 !!
Swamp Dawg:
Added a couple more pictures to the bottom.
gror:
Thanks for posting the pictures Swamp Dawg. Its time to get rid of the old 251 and three on the tree. Both are working ok but thought I would make it a little more reliable. The wiring has been giving me some greif so it will all get replaced and a windsheild wiper will also be added. Other than that the rest is good.The engine going in is a 300 ford totaly rebuilt from top to bottom. A c6 auto is going in for a tranny . Lots to do including fabing up moter & tranny mounts. Leapord skin interior has to go and the yellow paint. The only rotten wood was the roof because it was birch venier and left in the rain since 2002 when it was last done. Will correct that and give the old girl a new paint job. Will post pictures of the finished product when done, which will be in a couple of months, so much to do , so little time. I tried to take as many pictures of parts for you Old Trucker so if you have any questions about them feel free to ask.
Swamp Dawg:
Good choice on the 300 C6 combo, very reliable. Not overly powerful but torquey and fuel efficient. We've been having great luck with ours. And it fits very nicely in the engine bay.
Good luck and keep us updated with pictures. Not too long till the snow flakes come.
