This Project starts with  an old rusty 40 GM Military truck ( ton and a half ) that belongs to a friend of mine. He paid $200 for it..




Thats what we have started with, after a little rust removal it was able to fit inside!



then to the installation of a SB chevy 350 with a TH400 bolted to it.. goin to use the original 2 speed t case.. ( hope it lasts lol )



oh yea had to build a custum trans cross member..



We also shortened the wheel base a little bit to help improve trailablity, did away with the old broken spring and gathered up some GM spings and hangers





thats pretty much where she sets atm, need to gather up more materials for the from hangings in the front.
we have a line on a cleaner cab  and will prolly do some custum bed work for the back, its been a fun build so far and there will be more update as get get closer to completion.
