i think its cause i liked the bumper





figured it would give me something to do over the winter. been sitting in a field since 1982, so far i cant get the motor to turn, filled the cylinders full of marvels mystery oil so ill give it a try again eventually

 

Heck of a cow pusher you got there. Cool truck!

 

Put some kind of heater underneath the motor for an hour or so. Saw it on TV. Don't know if it will work but at least you'll be warm

 

that motor is garbage, even looking into the valve covers its nothing but rust. few days ago i tried spinning the motor again and just broke the think off the crankshaft pulley. i planned on changing the motor anyways but thought it would have been cool to drive around the block

 

What are the plans for the motor? Try to find stock or custom? 350 maybe

 

ive been hording k5 blazer parts since about 2002 so i got a 1990 tbi 350 in the garage, couple transmissions transfercases and axles and tons of other stuff. not sure if i want to make it a 4x4 or not yet.

it didnt come with a title which is why i got it so cheap, when we bought it we were going to buy another one for the cab and title but someone just bought it under us. getting a title is not impossible but just havent tried to do it yet and dont want to do anything until we know we can get a title for it, thats the dilemma.

but will probably do the body work on it first (mostly just needs new floors) before messing around with it. its actually a 1 ton with a 9 foot bed which is kinda cool

 

Awesome, sounds like fun
