I think I would have painted the window as well so no one else could see her - just in case he didn't want to sell.

She's got a 5.0 a C6 I'm pretty sure it's a dana 50 front cause the front gawr is 4500 lbs and a rear 60---

D50 is not stock in anything except a 250 super cab.

How big are the hubs?

Well I got her home and cleaned up the outside. I cleaned up the axle tags and confirmed it's a D50 snowfighter front and a semi floating 60 out back

She fired right up after I poured some gas in the carb so I'll be picking up a fuel pump tomorrow so I can take her for a spin
