Its seen a lot of miles and western NY salt has done a number on it.
I've started to tear into it. It will be faster, stronger, better

Tear down has begun. Box and fenders are off, next on the list is the drive line.
Well I finally did more then just look at it

You've got a lot on your plate there. Good job with the pictures too. You've done a lot of tear down work and I'm wondering what your plans are for the rebuild. Do you plan to go through your rear axle and repair as needed, or replace it with new. How about the exhaust? It looked to be in pretty good shape. What about the engine? You going to get into that too? Keep the pictures coming and good luck. Looks like a good project.

full roller) Exhaust is solid just have to clean it up. X pipe it if I can and make better mounts. Well I could stick with the 8.8 or go to a 9 inch. If I stick with the 8.8 I'm not putting it back in with a open diff.I used a cut off wheel and cut the top of the bolts off. The bed is junk so I didn't really care if I cut into it.
