I could see dropping $10k to $12 in it in a heart beat. That particular diesel engine is very weak on power, most install a turbo system on it and it really wakes them up.

Coming from central america I knew that it would have patch work done to it all over the place. The fenders and body were full of bondo. The frame was straight but had some unusual fab work done.

The transmission in it should be an H41 with the lower gearing in first. If I switched it out I would go with an H55 but not an H42.

Congratulations! It is a good foundation to start with.
