Make it a driver / light duty wheeler. Those trucks are super cool, and you hardly ever see them anymore. Just my .02

I'll be inheriting a 54 in a few years... Kinda morbid, feeling anxious about it, but it's in such good condition and the current owner isn't... :eek:

Wrong grill bars, I know. but it's a 54. Tailgate is wrong too.

hey i have 2 of those pickumup thingys. love it. that one looks like a runner. kinda hard to say take it back woods bashing cause its not like you can just runn off to the nearest you pullit and get new panels. but thats where it really wants to be. i say give it what it wants.:thumbsup:
if any one really wants one i have a completly stock non runner you can have for cheap.

Nice find! I would throw in a new rear end and wheel it. If I had it, I would use the big bearing 9" rear housing I have lying around for it! :D

That's only temporary... They always remember, and bring it up later as if it were new ammo. :banghead: That said, I still wouldn't trade my evil wench for anything. ;)

Awesome truck Dave! I just saw one of them on my way home last night. All stock except the tires/wheels. I'd drive it just like it is. There's two of them near me that have been for sale for a while. Pretty beat up and rusty but one has a tow boom on the back. I'll try and get pics this weekend.

Keep us posted. I just did a Chity V-6 swap into one with the original T-90 and changed the 18 to a 20. This guy also changed the rear axle and the front drive shaft wont clear the bell housing. My truck is in rough enough condition I'm going to do the Wagoneer frame swap for all the available upgrades. The wagon is the wifes and is on a 2x frame so I found a '90's Jeep 4.0 with tranny and tcase for 100. She wants A/C...:rolleyes:

:lol: ya right, the cherokee took me three yrs to get done and i still have the stang project to finish. but when i saw it that jeep bug took over and well you know the rest of the story :banghead: Thinking of taken the 77 NT drive train/ d-44's and puting under it. it has the 538 gears now and thats no good for a driver. ohoh maybe slap a 360 in it and the th400 ;) the wheels are turning here in my brain.

Wait till you see all the links I just PM'd you. After doing the V6 swap, an 8 would have been MUCH simpler....
