CHEAP build thread

so this is my hunk o junk burb i picked up for a steal. traded a tbi 350 for it straight across!

tbi 350/700r4 12 bolt 3.42 gears
trans is a little weak but the engine has less than 30k on a jasper.
when the engine was done they swapped in a junkyard axle and put new water pump all filters and a new modine radiator.

i found a grip of receipts in the map pocket.

i cut 2 coils off the front and cut the bump stops off, the rear got 79 1/2 ton pickup springs (minus 4 leafs) in place of the fiberglass leafs.
next im making a c notch and a upper bracket for the front shocks then buying all new shocks.

when i got it the interior was all there but trashed, after a thorough cleaning my wife will go for a ride with me!!

so the 69 is on the back burner and this is the priority for now.
