Well wife and myself went and picked up the welder friday and will be trying the welding out on it tomarrow. It started rather easy when we picked it up. Just needed to find a good battery and off she went. No smoke sounded solid.

Model SA-200-f-163
Code 7074
Serial puts it as a 1971 model.

Took a extra week to get it down to my place, tried to go up a week ago and went about 10miles out of town and the tranny in my truck locked up.. Ended up being no oil in it, which is strange becuse when it was put in 3months ago and was full. Never seen a leak once and the tranny shop said they did not see anywhere that it could have went. So we are thinking that some one we know drained it out at some point. Cost us almost 3k to get a new one put in. Oh ya its a NV4500 5 speed in a 97 dodge 2500 truck.

Anyway cant wait for tomarrow and burn some rod I hope. want to find out about moving all the controls up front and updating it a little.
