Ok, so I guess we are going to pull the trigger. ECORS is the East Coast Off Road Series. Pretty much a combination of wide open racing and rock crawling mixed into 1 event. The main objective is to complete the given # of laps within a given time. The winner is the one who finishes in the least amount of time (of course). The class A rigs are most like a stock vehicle. Plans are for a 302 EFI motor, C-4, 3.5" lift, full cage, and 33" tires. I will post some pics later on what we will be working with. Be patient- there isn't a whole lot to see yet!!! As for now, going back down to the garage to do some more wrenching. If chuck's big surprise is that he is building one as well, we just beat you to the punch... I think it is that he is moving to Sugar Tit, SC.

Good Luck with the build.
Watch out talking about Sugar Tit - I'm only 10 minutes down the road and pass through every day on the way to work!

I can't imagine the hardship this truck went through. The one shock is flattened, one rear spring is broken and had even punched a hole through the rear floor section, one radius arm mount is bent, and a ton more... Despite all that, it still has a lot of good usable parts on it that will be thrashed on some more by us.
That is all for tonight. This is my first actual submitted build thread anywhere. Hopefully it is easy enough to follow along with. Looking to have a good bit of fun with the build, even if it is freezing in the garage...
