Black truck in the above picture belongs to the guy I bought the truck from. It is one of his other classic project trucks. I'll post more pictures when I have them.

What motor mounts are you planning on using Richard? The ECE mounts are pretty nice, and they look to be a direct bolt in.

That thing looks great! Any other pics....and what is that in?
Truck looks sweet also, and that motor would be perfect looking in that orange truck.

The ECE mounts won't work on a 4x4 application.

thats the most popular truck in history . i read that a while back. my dad had 2 of them. i hope we get to watch it come together. if you put it on a 99 frame , that will be killer.
