I forgot to tell y'all that I am new to the forum and bought my 1980 LUV for $600 running and driving and 4x4 works great, entire truck has only 104k miles. It only has 2 spots of rust, one right below passenger door which I'm going to fix as soon as i get my welder fixed..... and one on the front passenger cab mount bolt hole, which I can't fix til i get my welder fixed. I've yanked the engine which I am almost done rebuilding just need to get a valve job done. I'm not going to put the engine back in until I get all the bushings and other misc items replaced on the front end plus putting rhino on the frame.
I also plan on putting a '72 K5 blazer's axles on the front and back but keep the original engine, I know sounds kinda dumb but it'll be worth it. I don't have any pics right now unfortunately but I will try to get some posted soon. I'll keep y'all updated on my progress.
