anyways, I am in process of fixing up the rear of the frame on the truck. pulled the bed off on Tuesday and dropped it off at my buddies shop to have the rust fixed and have it repainted. most of the crossmembers and brackets are swiss cheese so I am replacing those and applying por15 to everything. also will finish tearing down the motor this weekend and once I get the bed back on, I will be bringing the short block to the machine shop to have it gone through and checked and cleaned up. hoping to be able to do that next week, but all depends on how long this frame work/painting will take


Truck should be nice when its done. Where about are you in NH?
