Well i got a build thread over on dually scene but i figured i would start one over at good ole street source also. I bought this dually specifically to cut up, but i had it for awhile with no funds. So i sold it to a friend. he wanted it for the built 454 that was in it. So basically i got the body back and started my build which will prob never be done.

motor and tranny in. i cut the bottom off of the rails instead of the top since i was going to have to Z it anyways. Some of the 1-ton square bodies have to be and some dont. the pie cut the rails down to match the firewall angle and fit the new railstranny crossmember in and have cutouts for 3" exhaust to fit front to back

i should have already been done with it lol i got burnt out and have taken a month break from it so far. i just udes the air clear from the pup on it. it has a 454 big block and a turbo 400 so i can tow the pup when im done.this was the donor truck i bought to steal the motor, tranny and all of the suspension parts off ofnow swapping all of the front suspension and motor and trranny overfinaly getting to lay it out with the one ton stuff, maybe on baby tires and 16's but damn i was happy ooooooyyyyeeehhhhhhh time to test fit the semis and adaptors. the didnt clear hardly at all but i was still showin it my "O" face.

now time for the notch. and yes it is a tower of power swingset notch. since i cut off the bottom of the frame and Z'd it, i didnt have to touch our move and body mounts at all, but it did mean that i would have to put in a 4" larger notch.moment of truth, i got trevor at tn wheel and tire to machine my wheels for me after i polished the bejesus out of em
