I'm sure the crappy cell phone pics don't do that thing justice! I would jump all over that, you'll be so far ahead of the game when it comes to the body!

Hands down the $4k truck would be much cheaper in the end.

blackdiesel · 03-28-2011, 08:13 PM

^^^ what he said, you can't make the other truck run for twice that much

Hubscrub · 03-28-2011, 09:50 PM

the 4k would be the way to go for me, as said in alabama 74 older does not require a title/just a bill of sale, heard that with my own ears form the lady at the reg. office. I was in the process of buying a truck that came from ala., but here in TN we have to file for a title.

Well i picked it up today. Maybe ill start a project thread soon. Its not all original, but the frame motor trans and body panels are. Wood bed has possibly been replaced. It has been painted. Im gonna try and get the straight six running. If i can't im gonna s10 frame it on a 350. Here are pics

It all depends on what your going to do with it in the end. How much are you going to do yourself etc... The are two different animals. The body being perfect in the other is cheaper than having someone else do the repairs. Are you looking for the patina look and leaving it rough on the S10. All this comes into play. Is the other 327 engine easily repairable? Alot of questions that you need to ask yourself. Hope my .02 helps.

Layedoutsonoma91 · 03-31-2011, 07:55 PM

I already bought the green one i just posted lol. Its an inline 6, gonna see if i can get it running. I will be doing EVERYTHING myself. I can do anything i need to.

sweet70beast · 03-31-2011, 09:47 PM

It would have cost more than 4 grand to get the other one in that good of shape. This one is a much better deal.

ruffrida2005 · 05-13-2011, 03:51 PM

Nice truck you go. Do you have any links to your noma?

there is a quick link, you can also go into my photobucket and look its not secure.

Dan Bowles · 05-15-2011, 10:24 PM

Nice truck. Later model 235 looking at it. Should be a good way to go. I wouldn't do an S10 swap with that, you aready have a good foundation with that. Hope you get it running as it is!

ruffrida2005 · 05-21-2011, 05:00 PM

you got a link to your photobucket. I tried you SN but it didn't work. Also what bags are you running on the back?
