    You should put that rock crawler on zukikrawlers.com. If you think you can finish your project in about a year you don't need concrete. I used 2x4's and 3/4" plywood and made a "pad" for me to work on my truck. Just a lil southern ingenuity!!!

    Put some muscle in that farm truck. I got an '81 and my LS3 just showed up today. Contact Cleveland pick-apart. They have some wrecked '10 camaros. Good luck with the swap.
