Get a working motor in it. Then get it inspected and registered.
Glad you found one Dave, Needs a little love, put in a 'yota steering column and take out the Nissan!! Nothing a little plasma cutting and welding can't fix!!!LOL!! I'm sure a motor will become available soon.
SWEEEET!!! A guy in the DFW club has a 6.0 Vortec for sale with computer and harness for $800. Talk to Butch.
Nice score. Dave. I saw that one CL too. what is wrong with the engine? If you need a cherry picker, I've got one.

I think it's cool. Congrats on an excellent score.
Is that factory PS? Looks like the original color was mustard.
You're slipping...need to add the 40 to your signature line, immediately.
And give it a proper name.
How about some literary imagery? I'm thinkin'...OthelloOthello - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I was going to crank the engine yesterday, but I crawled underneath first and found a big hole in the oil pan. I guess it threw a rod.

I thought the seller told you about the thrown rod and oil pan hole before the purchase?
Just find where it threw it too and put it back in. Are you going to put a F/2F back in or are you going to put a v8 in it? Looks like you and I need to take a trip to the salvage yard.
2F. Edwin might have one for me.
Yes, he did, but I didn't see it until the other day.

I took off the front lights. Two are chrome. Maybe Mark would take them.
I was thinking of going with gold to match the 100 series emblems. What do ya think?

David, did you locate a non-ghetto steering wheel? You should buy that 80 wheel back from Craig. He never used it.
Will you be driving the 40 home this afternoon? We'll expect action photos, whenever it happens.

I think I need a new steering column. The truck is a long way from being driven home 
The truck is now at Edwin's awaiting a heart transplant. He took off the gigantic 37" tires and put on his 35's. The home made spacers were also removed, but Edwin found out that the front steering linkages now hit the rim. I now need some high steer arms.
