After pricing all of the upgrades, it turns out I did have a budget so transmission and crate motor will have to wait until I save a few pennies. Was able to fire it up this weekend so that felt good. Removed the rain rail around the windsheild and top of doors. Will put doors on and line them up to finish. Then wiring, ac lines, brake booster and paint.

    Bad. Ass.

    Rain rail removal is the perfect touch.

    Your budget wants Torq Thrust 2's in it.

    I had an 88 4WD that had a 350 in front of a TH350. Wouldn’t go much over 70, but it would pull anything.

    After further review, I still stand with the Torq 2.

    Nice work! Like to see you coil over pics when you get a chance. I put those on my 55 with a 3 link in the rear.
