and another shot.
20$ for sheet metal,60$ for bedliner = 80$ for patch work so far. with cab/tax = 400$ to replace the 85 cab. well worth the effort and cash so far. hope to squeeze it all in under the 550$ cash mark.
going to need another roll of wire for welder, another gallon of bedliner to finish up the cab.
little progress at a time.
the 5 speed conversion is coming in under 900$ but still need to build a drive shaft yet.
the whiplash roller cam swap added another 550$ to the bill.
it will be like a new truck for less than 2000$ invested. which is better than a 350$/month 5 yr payment plan right now.
