I think Prince Harry would probably try decapitating himself with it at this point. Or maybe do the world a favor before he turns it on himself....

In for two.

Yeh, I forgot where you were at. Scratch my suggestion, mebbe white?

And?

I thought my black and silver two-tone paint job looked pretty awesome, personally. The green bed kinda throws it off, but I could only find one other pic of a black and silver 2nd gen.

Far right in this pic, in case you've forgotten:

I'll take the blue 4x4 service truck please 'n' thank you.

360 FE is the donor engine, my truck that's getting cummins swapped has a running 360/NP435 combo in it so we're using that for simplicity's sake. Plus, there's 1.5 extra 360's floating around so we have parts.

Got a wee bit done after work, I busted the rims off my 60 front, grabbed the self-propelled hi-lift, and put a good set of rollers on the chassis. Now it can be easily shuffled while it sits for however long it takes for me to get the engine, trans, and front axle pulled off my truck and ready...

It's actually a Ford chassis, but correct. My brother has a 68 F250 2wd truck that is donating the body for that build.

My youngest brother was finally able to pick up his 4x4 frame, turns out I was off by less than a month on my estimate of the year but it's an important month. 73-77.5 frames were the same width as 67-72, but the wheelbase was 2 inches longer. So, I'm gonna help him relocate the rear spring...

Well, the last of the gear oil got added 5 minutes before owner showed up to grab the truck for work so I'm happy. I'm kinda nervous because diff stuff ain't my thing, but when he was backing it out of the shop he said the truck felt much smoother so I'm hoping it'll be fine.

I may have been a wee bit irritable when I wrote that, and for fairness' sake I'll amend my statement a bit. For starters, the owner and I have both been dealing with a very crappy and stressful couple of weeks, and yesterday was the crown jewel of crappiness for both of us. So his freaking out...

My weekend project 'cause who needs to drive a truck responsibly, run her hard and fast till something (almost, in this case) blows. And don't bother changing gear oil even after 60,000+ miles with towing 20k scattered in a bunch, that oil will still be fine. Jackwang is more worried about...
