    When I was 16 our neighbor in Boise had ones that looked just like this one, well that’s what this one reminds me of. Have always wanted one even today 40 years later. Nice truck!!

    Panels on the dash were similar left to right to facilitate making export models without additional tooling.

    Nice job. I have a 46 willies. that I did a frame up. Restoration. 10 years ago. Bought me some US male Jeep. interfenders and front fenders. boxed in the frame. It's been through the Rubicon now. 20 times. I'm retired. And only drive it to the ranch. and some shows.

    Had a 51 station wagon that i shoe horned in a Chevy 350 out of a Vett. That was one fun sleeper. Rolled up on some guys that thought their cars were fast, and would toy with them.

    A few suggested upgrades:
    A GM Dana 60 Front Axle.
    Crossover steering form ORD.
    A 14 bolt rear.
    The stainless firewall veneer?
    Electric fans if it’s still running hot.
    I imagine it might need panhard rods & a stabilizer for the front axle, does it get death wobble?

    • @robguysgarage5422

      He told me the front end goes straight as an arrow but it took a long time to get it there, thanks for watching

    What transmission and transfer case are you running ?

    • @robguysgarage5422
      @robguysgarage5422  2 місяці тому

      not sure on the trans but it's an auto, the t case is an NP205

    • @robguysgarage5422
      @robguysgarage5422  2 місяці тому

      the trans is either a TH350 or a TH400 because it's a 3 speed

    • @austinpaul2170

    Build a fan shroud. Should help with overheating.

    Nice truck too bad you RUINED It with that Walmart Chevy motor, no imagination or skills I guess 🤷‍♂️

    • @robguysgarage5422
      @robguysgarage5422  2 місяці тому

      that engine hasn't ruined it, it sounds cool and has almost 500 hp

    • @MikeJones-yl5ci
      @MikeJones-yl5ci 2 місяці тому

      @ I’m not saying it’s a bad engine, it’s the wrong engine for that truck especially considering it was the easiest and cheapest way to go. Dodge makes 490 hp with the 392 and it is correct for the manufacturer and it’s not a me-too build. Ohh and in 2024 500 hp isn’t a lot.
