Have not seen one of those in a long time, great shape. What are your plan, hope you keep it stock

 

I have given creative freedom to my girlfriends son.I belive the engine is un repairable.I want to keep it stock also.He wants a 4 wheeler.

 

Put a fun motor in it and use it for cruising and getting ice cream. Buy something easy to find to turn into a wheeler.

Those are getting really rare.

 

Man, I can't believe how good of shape the body is in! I'm thinking small block chevy, Turbo 350, and air bag suspension...LOL!

 

The inside is perfect too,not even a tear in the original seat.

 

Wow, that is truely a rare find!

 

looks good brian, when i get my license next week im gonna be makin a run up there shortly after, gonna have to stop by and see the new stout. glad you could use those springs too, i knew i wasnt gonna lol

 

Yea,come on up and check it out.It has a 3R engine.I need a 3R engine its froze up solid.But I think I have the kid talked out of cutting it up.Well here are some pics of the transmission mount for the turbo 350.Its solid.

 

 

Well today Jacob and I decided to play with the new toy.We pulled the spark plugs and squirted oil down the holes.Then he removed the radiator while I was working on my truck.After that we had a good open shot at the big crank pulley bolt.I put the breaker bar on it and.......nothing but the feeling of things starting to strip and over tighten.So its looking like I need a 3R engine.

 

Well its finished,I think the engine and tranny are bolted down safely now.This means if I had the pulley for the front,I would have a cooling system.If I had 6 quarts of oil and 2.5 gallons of atf,in theory it would run.The pully should be here on the 19th

 

Awsome!!

 

Thats sweet that you got it finished, the cross member looks plenty beefy, it should hold up really well, Nice work!

 

Here are some pics of the short water pump installed.Still waiting on the pulleys.

 

 

That's must put out some 'GRRRR' in that thing, eh? So, with that pump and pulley you're waiting for... the alignment of the belts should be spot on, etc? (Sorry if I missed that... figured it easier to ask, my 'lazy-bad', lol).

Take Care, One Eye

PS> (Every time I see you've posted something I think of my Brother in-law's Pops who just passed... He was quite a dude, and he was named by himself, "Grampa One Eye"... for obvious reasons, lol.)

 

Thats the idea Chef.After that exhaust and I have a sweet deal brewing with my friends over at R&P 4wd in Oregon City for my front driveline to be made and the rwar modified.After that wires and hoses.Thats it.

 

Everybody check out the build thread I started in pre 84 trucks,for the stout.

 

I got my package from Rebel Products today.They sent me the wrong pully.Now they wont let me return the part they sent in its unopened package.All sales are final,is what I was told.It is not what I ordered,if it was that would be cool.So now my teuck still doesnt run and I still dont have the correct parts and im down 35$.Do not buy drom these people.
