Honcho
01-30-2004, 11:30 PM
Sup all! My name is Brad and I am a newbie to your BB. I own a 79' J-10 Honcho and just last week I bought a very down trodden J-2000 FOR $100.00 DOLLARS YESSSSSSssssss....... =D> The Honcho is slated for an almost frame up restore. I have actually started on it. Right now we are waiting for Edelbrock's new 401 heads. Right now, as I will many many times in the future, I need to pick some brains if I may. Can anyone tell me what kind of TC I have in my Gladiator? Here is a picture of the tag that is on it;

Here are more pictures of the truck as well;

I have no pink slip yet, I know it's not stolen because I called PD before I bought it, I am not 100% sure about anything, yet. Here is what "I think" I know;
1-"I think" it is a 1969, here is the VIN http://www.naughtyjollyroger.com/misc_images/gladiator/vin.jpg
2- It's a 350 Buick Dauntless w/ a TH400
3- "I think" the front axle is a Dana 44 closed knuckle
4- "I think" I am clueless as to what the rear is, there is a tag on it that says "Use limited slip oil only". Here is a pic of the only numbers I can find on the rear end;

and a rear view of it;

Any ideas gentlemen? Additionally, I am looking for a working instrument cluster, anyone have one laying around they want to sell or can anyone lead me to a junkyard that has these trucks? TIA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
