the 32 dollar crew cab short box...build thread

So I had a great deal fall in to my lap , always loved these trucks and opportunity knocked.
A few months ago I was given a 87 Chevrolet long box that had been fully rebuilt with all new panels. One little problem it had been t-boned by a drunk driver while sitting on the lot of the body shop waiting for paint.
It was given to my friend for the big block and he was going to have the remainder crushed, I grabbed it for the box, running gear, new front end , etc.
I picked up a 1990 grew cab for 500.00 sold the flat deck for 150.00 the front ( push ) bumper for 50 and the 14 bolt for 300 including all the wheels.
I purchased a rocker today for 32.00 and I am starting the conversion.

short box crew cab , all half ton running gear with bell tech components.

I know it will get expensive but 32.00 is a great start...
