Need some input.

Hey guys so i have been sititng here thinking what and where i want to go with my project. I'm starting to realize that this might not have been the starting point i wanted. 350,T400,Manual doors/locks ETC

How hard would it be to locate a 81+ 6.2L/Manual trans,crew cab,PW/PL, maby even A/C (like a fully loaded or semi fully loaded) C30 dually?
I know there is no such thing in canada... Or at a decent price. almost looking for something i can get in an drive and don't have to sink a million dollars into safty with a fairly stright body.

Might go look at this tomoro:

oo , that sucks man. when you start second guessing things you are in trouble . haha well, sometimes things change. you started a build and made some good progress so far. now your list of i wants is growing and normally the money tree doesnt like that. you can keep plugging away at yours, adding power doors , a/c , eventually a motor swap. all fun things to do, but its costly. and time consuming. or you find one already with more of your options you want. hmm, id personally keep what you have and just make it how i want it. you already have the truck. thats half the battle. either way, good luck man. and ive come across few trucks like what you described. bit on the costly side in my eyes.

See i wouldnt mind adding power Doors,A/C or stuff like that as i like a challenge but the prob is there is NO crew cabs to pick from you either buy the whole truck or get squat. the only real option is to find a reliable source in the USA and bring my truck down and do it that way. or find a complete whole truck. at this point it's just a thought as i found a 6.2L for arund $200 (depending what comes with it). and your right the trucks Registered,saftied,insured and MINE. whats "costly for what i described" out of curiosity.

Thansk for the input

its all good man. i hear ya. i can always help you track down parts. and what i meant when i said costly was...most of the trucks down here that are loaded crewcab duallys with the 6.2 are a bit on the higher side as in price. ive seen several guys swap over to that motor when they ripped out there 350/454 and they jack the price up more cuz its a diesel swap.

Just found a 6.2L with a 700R trans for 400 only miisng the fly wheel,starter,rad,batt tray and the batt harness.


But it's been pulled and sititng for 4 years.
