Do you plan to use the Sierra diesel in the rat rod?
Its actually a pretty damn solid truck! Amazingly little rust for a truck of its year. As for the Sierra....no its 6.5 Detroit is staying right where it is lol...Hopefully next summer i will be doing a solid front axle swap to make it a much more capable 4x4 possibly along with an NV4500 5 speed manual swap.

Given the past year...so do i....This truck is replacing a '95 S10 blazer that became a money pit over the past few months as well as the '00 Astro that was supposed to replace the S10 but got totaled off after a month...both of which replaced a '14 Toyota Camry which was supposed to replace the aforementioned S10 and a '08 Chevy Trailblazer...
