I've been lurking here for a bit figured i may as well add something. I haven't done much on forums for years but i like the format so why not. I will get this up to date eventually(shouldn't take long) and try to update as i go.
What it is: 67 M715 FSJ. It's mostly a chevy truck with jeep skin at this point.
I built this years ago ('08-'09) when i was younger and had less hobby budget but worked at avalanche engineering. It's been good but the junkyard 454 is dead tired and it's been mothballed for 2-3 years.
back then i swapped gm one tons, rebuilt the front suspension for square body front springs on a SOA. Rear got a 3" block to match the front on stock springs. Swapped a tbi 454 nv4500 round 205 in it and planted some 39.5/15 mickeys on it. Built a quicky cage and blasted around in it.
current plan is to put a 427 bbc in it that's way more zesty than the turd 454. Th400/nwf ecobox/np205. The rear suspension is getting 63" springs. Cage is getting rebuilt and the front suspension is getting improved. Oh yea, 39.5/18-16.5 boggers!
Here's a few old pics. build stuff coming
