I hope this doesn't take 12 months to complete but this should be a great "reveal" much better than the lounge chair guy.

I'm taking the motor mount to work and cutting it today so it should go a little quicker.

that will be one thing I will get this time. then maybe I'll break out the bar stool and get one of it.
so!
I took the motor mount plate to work and cut it. well when I got it home I discovered it was too thin!
and that is what is great about the junk works shop. anything can work if you just think about it.
so I turned the plate sideways and cut another plate to fit under it with my grinder. and welded them together.
welded the motor mount to the frame.
even hooked p the chain while I was at it.
now it is down to putting a fuel tank on it. hooking p the shut off switch and hooking up the brakes

We might have one from a lawn mower if that will help? That care package is getting bigger too! Paul threw some stuff on the side he thought you might want. Can you use blocks to angle an axle? If there is anything you can think of off the top of your head, let us know because we have a stack of scrap metal (old truck and bronco parts) outside in the garage along with some furnace parts and what not. There is even a bumper I think from our old 86 F250. I will check on the gastank for you tho!

I told my nephew to finish off one for me! so soom as he is done drinking it I'll get started on the gas tank!
as far as parts I have on my wish list:
a set of coil spring buckets for the frame of my truck.
a drive shaft with a slider in it.
four air ride air bags. (if I get these I won't need the coil spring buckets)
two spring perch brackets. ( to weld on the rear axle for the spring over axle swap)
I think that is really all I need to finish my truck. the odds and ends that have to be fabbed just take time.
but any parts that are not needed and you are only going to throw out might be worth me taking a ride out one early morning to your house and paying a vist!
