Default Project Ugly duck

Well haven't been on here in a while. I've been working on a little project for a while now. It started out as a 83 D150 and a 93 D250 cummins with a 518. I'll upload pics I have taken along the way. The 83 was a 318/727 that I sold. As the truck sits now it has the VE Cummins with a 518 and 3.55 dana 70. I will be swapping in a 3.07 Dana 70 and swapping out the rest of my front suspension to 8 lug. It's been something to keep me busy. I'll be doing the body work next year.

Good luck finding a stepside. I looked for a cheap one for a few years before I found this.

Well still waiting on bushings and need to get one more tire so I can change the front 2 junk tires out. It's looking more like a sleeper everyday.
