Update on the macho, it now runs and drives. I installed a new lightweight high torque starter on it. Also ordered up a new exhaust for it as well. The front floor pans are shot so those will need to go into it next. Over the weekend I ripped out all the carpet so the floors wouldnt get any worse as the carpet was a little damp. There was no broadcast sheet to be found on this one.

Got the new floor pans and I should have then in a couple of days. I put the truck up on the lift and noticed the under side is not as bad as I thought it was going to be. After I install the new front floor pans the floors will be pretty solid. The outside of the truck will need some work though. I'll work on that as I drive it. Ended up putting the new exhaust on it Sunday. Came out really decent and sounds nice a quite. While I had it on the lift I noticed the passenger side motor mount is broken and the transfer case mounts are gone. The rubber is totally missing and one bolt has fallen out(lol). The brake lines and gas lines look some what new. The frame is all decent as well with just scale. I'll post some progress pics as I fix things.
