Great find man, and one hell of a deal. My uncle had a crew cab 1 ton single axle '86 with a 6.9 and a 4 speed and he drove the crap out of it.

First off, can a mod please move this thread to Under construction as it is officially a "project" now.

secondly, here is my J-yard treasure from today. After looking at the pics I took in the dark I realized that I left the j-yard so fast I forgot the damn turbo hat thing that connects turbo to intake manifold. NO biggy, I will just have to go back and get it tomorrow, I left it in the passenger seat.

onto the pictures:

This is what $135 got me, (plus the missing peice i have to go back and get)




but the money is of no importance, the bigger price I paid was this:





I spent from 0900 tuesday to 0100 wednesday at the range doing zero/qual and night fire, in the 110* weather, Full battle rattle. Then I go out and get the shit burnt out of me today. I'm hurting to say the least.

it is, but I'm not using it to put the B2 on. I'm going to put a toolbox/fuel tank at the front, and I'm going to buy a gooseneck.
