That iss why I am using everything from the frame down from the 77 Wagoneer that had the 401 in it. its essentially a 64 body on a 77 frame and chassis. With some good motor mounts it will be just fine.Last edited by pratty85; 10-23-2012, 01:19 PM.

I've got a van very similar to that one
It's a 93 GMC 3500 extended length that is powered by a lowly 6.2 and backed by a 4L80E
The only windows it has is two in the rear doors and two in the side doors
(and the normal windows in the passenger doors and windshield of course.)
It's 6.2 does not have huge amounts of power, but is real easy on fuel.Bryan Smith

Yep, all the way around this will be a much better "Go anywhere Expeditionary rig" than my pick up. I needed to build something that would be a good all around retirement truck for daily driving, working around property, rarely towing my 5th wheel, and other possible heavy lifting duties. My truck would serve as a good expedition rig, but not a truly great one.Originally posted by Resbum"What year is my truck?... Which part?"
