[BigBFiveThree]

So heres progress in order of my project, first picture is what it started out as, and how it came to be. Enjoy!

Very first time ive ever pulled an engine or anything, first project ive ever taken on. I am a 22year old from Canada, with big dreams!
I am very close to completion and have only started this whole swap roughly 2nd Week of November 2014, and on a a low buck budget (those dont exist by the way) I am currently including price of me selling old engine and parts from truck and the initial $900 into it, and all the parts am roughly $4450 into the entire build (canadian money... or I guess monopoly money to you americans haha)

Any questions just ask.
Here is my Story!

Started out with me purchasing a 1975 Chrysler Newport at beginning of summer for $900. had a 400 Big Block and tons of power. but just didnt have that wow factor for me.. so at end of summer (2014) I found a guy who wanted the car and offered me his 83 C10 with 166,000 original kilometers on it and $400 cash for my car. so I took it!.

This is a story of what happens when you give me a Square body and I find a low mileage LS for cheap!

ENJOY!
