No wonder Noah hasn't answered my pm.  Dang it , I was gonna go see it this weekend if he still had it.  I was looking for a big block truck that I could drop my shit in and go.  Well if its still there on Saturday..... :violent-smiley-007:  too bad too sad

Ha ha... I talked to Pete last night.  He is the original owner. Nice guy but the truck only has a 318.  Sounds like a fairly easy fix too. I told him I knew you guys were coming out and we had a laugh about that.  I saw how close it was to San Marcos and was actually trying to get ahold of Noah to see about taking it to his place.  Its just too good of a deal to pass up you know. Good luck with it Eric. :13:

Thanks Richard, Its going to be another Fun Troxell Automotive project. So its in good hands. As soon as we get the last bit buttoned up on the Ramcharger ( its getting new suspension... Again). Then I will move on to that.

What all kind of  big block stuff are you looking for? We might be able to help you out if your looking for parts. We can defiantly help you with Small Block parts, We are up to are Asses in Small blocks!!

Nice but a Lil more than the budget calls for.  Doesn't mention title either which is a biggie. Thinking about going all Dodge and getting rod of my daily driver, Toyota Matrix.

As far as big block specific, power steering bracket is elusive.  Thinking about a Cummins radiator since they are a dime a dozen and big block Mopar ones are $300-500. Any thoughts on this?

The War Wagon






It's an interesting truck, but living in TX, I'd wanna make sure that a/c is ARCTIC cold first! 


I was born in '67 - POST baby boom.  Like all of us born after '64, I have the freon gene.  When it's over 70o, and I'm OUT of the presence of freon, I start getting the DT's!!!   :o
Restoring/building a War Wagon - good advice ALWAYS welcome!
