Good deal Mike! Glad to see you back in an OBS. Hard to get away from that 7.3 rattle once it gets into your head isn't it?

I was looking for a S10 for a 383 project when I found it.

That thing should be a good truck for you! It should run pretty well being a RC and when (not if) you add more power, it should hook well since it's a dually.

And by "stock" you mean powertrain wise right?! lol

The D60 and 4x4 swap are coming as soon as you find the parts?!

No serious mods for this one. In doing the 6637,c00n mod and putting my stacks on this weekend. This will be to tow only. I've spent 7k on the RAM since January, freshen up a 383 stroker I have and look for a s10

What gears did the DRW come with? Just 4.11 and 3.55 right ?
I'm turning 2800 at 70
I'm thinking this one has 4.56

That sounds about right for 4.11's, I may be wrong though, 4.56's dont seem very likely.

Nice truck and great deal, good luck with it all. You should dig up a photo of Bob's from dieselsite single cab dually OBS to see what this thing can look like.... his looks pretty sweet!
