No I'm Luke Brand. I don't think I ever transfered it to my name because it was already on Non op.

[Dweezil8675]

Gotcha, it still is on non op so that's good while I figure out how to transfer this title! thanks for your help so far!

[LukeGirard]

Welcome! No problem. I wish I'd be able to keep it.

[Dweezil8675]

its a good little truck. I can see why you would want to keep it! pretty easy to work on too. Parts are a little hard to find I guess but all in all its a good truck. you did a darn good job on the swap as well. if I didn't know any better I would think that was the motor that came in it!

[LukeGirard]

I swapped the harness and the engine from the other truck with hand tools in my backyard in dirt lol. You should replace the motor mounts the passenger side one is a little bent. The truck I got the engine out of was crashed but it still ran perfectly. The only things I needed to finish before I sold it was the hole in the floor from the auto shifter, the hole in the firewall for the clutch cable, the speedomoter cable, and fuel pump it would have been good to go.

[Dweezil8675]

sorry for my late response. I got it running I have all the gears back again, damn shift fork needed seated. no big deal. ive fixed everything except the motor mount and hole in the floor but other then that she is good to go! thanks again! not a bad job you did for doing it all with hand tools in the dirt!

[LukeGirard]

Thanks! Glad you got it all working!

Ok, so I have a 94 mighty max and was wondering if anybody can tell me where I can get smoke taillights and headlights or any custom head/taillights

How's Maxwell (The Truck) Coming Along?

[Dweezil8675]

Good!!! Fresh carb rebuild and I actually found some shiny bits under the grease and oil! It's got all new bushings up front and shocks all the way around and I threw some new half shafts in the front! I'm still working on the registration though....I think I'm just gonna get it registered in Ohio to avoid all the crazy California stuff.

Scrubbed up nicely. The engine looks like it's been reasonably well maintained (which is kinda rare with gen 1 trucks) It's shaped up to be a really good find!
