Finaly after a very long time and the ups and downs of 5 young ones and the wife, I'm on my way to assembly. Through the wonderful blessing God gave I can move forward with the PG-ADAMS CHASSIS I had to hold off ordering. Though I wanted to follow the similar path as Grigg with diesel power, I just cant get it done. But a very stout 350 and an SM-465 trans and newer axles with better gears makes the idea in the pic below attainable. The chassis will not be the original (STRONGER) and the suspension will be a little different with heavy duty airbags doing the load lifting, I still consisder it "one saved from the death of rust". I'm waiting on the email from PG-ADAMS with quote and dimensions tommorow. Tell me what you think of the photo playing Ive done with the image below. My actual truck is seen in my signature.
