I have had many failed attempts to move this thing under 20 miles. These
attempts include many rained out weekends, can't move in the muddy
field. I have also forgotten about equipment I needed to move it. I have
been out of town. I get back in town. Schedule a time with my friend to
move it. It rains or he has a schedule conflict. I also had to borrow
equipment and tires that are not flat. All of these things would have
been a lot easier to do if it were a jeep. :-)
I have found out some interesting things about the truck to my
disappointment. The transfer case is gone. The engine is also not
original. It has a different rear end. I believe I found the original
engine (or at least the 248 that was in it) half buried in the ground.
It has a GMC embossed stamp on it with a number that I don't have off
hand. I don't think it was the engine serial number. I will get it and
post it to see what you all think. I also don't think this engine is any
good being half buried in the ground for at least 34 years. Well, I just
wanted you all to know that it has made it.
