so im getting a 72 chev 3/4 ton 2wd next week which will be my new long term project, it is currently 2wd but i do have 3/4 ton gear from a 73 chevy d44 and corp 14 and a th400 and d20 to put in as well and a big block.....i have most of these parts cause i was workin on a j20 project but decided to scrap that in favor of this 72. it wont be a hard core wheeler.....at least not until it gets an accidental dent since the body is extremely straight and almost rust free but i will still take is easy on some mild trails and play in the sand but no little rubicon or anything like that yet....thats what my datsun will be for i will post pics as soon as i get it home next week, still need to finish the sliding axle trailer im trading for it. he bought materials i supplied the work so it works out good for me. i will post a video of the trailer when thats done too as i could build one for someone else as well, should be pretty slick 72 stats. long box 3/4 ton with leaf spring rear end, camper special, 350 th350 with spare th350 as well, factory tach, power steering, power brakes, from what i can tell its got a later model bench seat in it and there is a lot more but nothing really unique that i can think of at the moment, the plans call for 38s or better, mild/moderately built 454, big knuckle d44 and corp 14, th400 d20, total tear down to the frame and cleaning and rhino lining under and inside cab and bed possibly powder coated frame and accessories
