Hi All
Well its ben awhile since i did any posting on the board, I was usually up in the 47-59 forums. I just happen to buy back my 81 swb stepside for dirt cheap, Its been sitting for about 5 yrs now, got it home on thursday nite. Slow charged the battery for a day and then yesterday put the battery in hooked a line from a gas can strapped to the inner fender fo the fuel pump. Went in turned the key and hit the pedel a few time and she fired off and sat there and idled fine. the truck had an inline 6 3 spd that was put on the floor and the clitch and trans seems to work fine> Now i have a couple of ?'s, i also have a 76 swb i been driving around for a couple of yrs. but the cab and box is really falling apart, good thing it has real nice doors and i was wandering the 76 doors will boltup to the 81, and will or has anyone put a 4-5 spd trans from an s-10 or newer c series trucks in to an older 87 and down truck w/out have to change alot of things. I must say there are alot of nice looking trucks showing up onthe board and gives me lots of onsperation to get my 81 looking good. thanx for any info in advanced
