I popped the hood and the engine is still there; pretty cool vintage plate too!

Adam tackled reconstructing the floor to make room for the 4 speed auto and t-case; two things this truck never had. He also pulled a pair of sliders from the dumpster and made a little frontal crash support for me.

Current to-do list so i can get on the trail:
fluids
soft lines for brakes
fuel lines
swap in diesel tank
install front driveshaft
Other things I'm forgetting. There's a lot more than just that, skids, armor, winch, wiring, lighting, etc, but the trail is ten minutes from my house and i'd really like to spool up some dirt...

See ya next year? I'd like to bring this to MOD2018, but we'll see...
