Hard to believe I've had him for just over a year.

Blue's a little worse for wear right now.. I'm worried about what the body shop will say about the driver bedside. With about 6 patches and fabricated gas cap hole it probably should have been replaced. Need the dual tanks for the big block!

I feel your pain, took about 3 years to get mine on the road. Did you add the big block? I had the TBI 350 rebuilt but one day I'd really like to drop an LS in it

It is a 1978 and it rolled out of the factory with an inline 6 and a three speed on the column. It had a 350 when I bought it and now it's getting a complete frame off. When it's done it's going to be sitting low on cragars with a mild 454 and a tremec tko 5 speed.

I love LS swaps but it seems like everyone is doing it. This truck is kind of opposite of what everyone else is doing.

Sounds like it's gunna be a nice ride man! Mine had a 305 from the factory but I had a spare 350 and 700r from a parts truck my dad and I stripped for a different build. So that's what I went with lol Right now it's has an air ride setup with a 4 link in the rear, but to be honest it's fun to play with but it's going to be replaced with a static drop in the near future.

This is Prince. I got him the same day Prince died, (which I thought was in mid March so my title is wrong.. it's in mid April.) He was dropped off at my house instead of the pound. I got him at about 2 months old, he weighed just a tad over 10 pounds (starved), had worms, a seriously bad UTI (red urine), among other major health issues.

Now he's healthy as a horse and eats like one too..
