we have ignition. runs and sounds amazing. the a/t is acting ok. in 4 lo it has nothing. if you floor it and there is a snow berm in front of you it wont spin a tire just acts like you are pressing on the gas and brake at the same time. but here are some picts.

 

Sweet find you lucky stiff... those look like old American Racing rims FWIW... or maybe old Cragers... several mfgs. made similar rims back in the day...

 

what the heck man, i dont think ive ever gooten anything for free. Much less a whole TRUCK!

 

kind of funny this truck was free but the good running motor was $500. my truck was $500 and i got a fresh rebuilt motor for free.
anyone have a spare rim like these. looking for just one (the drivers front has about 4" of the bead lip missing.

 

Great find for free. Wish I could get a free bee like you guys. Great pics. Nice garage, really scored good with that garage.

Good Luck with truck. Keep us posted on what you do to it. I know there will be more mods.

 

damn... nice.. .love the rims..

 

nice truck man. even if you paid for it its a pretty good find. it looks damn near like mine minus the EFI, and i got chrome grill and bumper. lol.

 

well its first long trip will be today, travis drove it down to phoenix (about 160 miles)
we pulled the wheels that are in the above picts and put some flat black ones on.
so if anyone wants the alum wheels above (only 3) shoot me a price.
also the A/T works great, i was impressed with it.

 

bad news... the motor is making a bad rattle/knocking from the top end. valves are adjusted so i guess we are back to the beginning. only had about 500 miles. damn!!!!!

 

awesome find! good job and good luck with the build

 

well here are a few picts of the jeep that he got for free (had to drive to moab and also put a new tranny in it). it is fun but carbed...for now. still waiting to get the rebuild kit and get it on the road.

 

so we are picking up a 91 s10 with the 4.3. so out with the 22re and in with the 4.3 ... along with a new thread.

 

jeeps aren't cool

 

jeeps are just fine i wheel a jeep and a yoda as long as you use it your good in my book

 

too bad it's got a carb.

 

does this thing have yota axles under it??? I see six lugs and a rather large hub

 

Get the kid outta the way!
Seriously

 

you actually think i would put my daughter in harms way! seriously, she is out in front of the line of the tire and the truck. it is off, in park and the brakes are on.
the axles are dana 44s off of a suburban.

 

Sounds as if you just landed in Vegas on a magic carpet!
$$$$$$$$
Rock on and enjoy yourself!!!

 

well the motor with the knock travis found someone to buy it and the a/t and transfercase. BUT on the drive home the oil bump went out. SOOOO the motor is now just a core. F____!!!! waiting on motor mounts/drivelines/wiring etc for the 4.3 Vortec swap.
not sure where this project will fall on the list. between the 3.4 swap we have going or the efi onto 350 in the Cherokee or building the 82 yota or making a car hauler trailer or .......
