Alright if a mod could move the pics from Karl's thread to here that would be sweet.
My current plans after Clayton were to continue with the frickoneer. I was going to swap in a t-18/ Dana 20 combo, install tbi, mount winch, narrow, tube, and try to not make it such a turd. It was gonna cost a small fortune to do and in the end I would still have a jeep with a rusty arse frame.
While doing my normal craigslist search I found this rig/turd the verdict is still out on what to call it.
Specs:
78 half ton cab and frame
frame has been bobbed 23 inches
91 tbi 350
78 sm465
78 np 205
rear mounted radiator with dual fans
exo cage made from pipe
10 bolt front and rear with 4.88's, rear is welded
round driveshafts front and rear
dual alternators- stock new stock chevy 90 amp, and 195 amp aftermarket one
dual batterys
stock leaves in the back, 4 inch superlift fronts
setup mounts for f/r 8274
two Hella 55 watt lights
dual exhaust with flowmasters
huge 35-40 gallon tank with tbi sending unit
no flex- Thanks lift springs
Bad
No flex
Pipe Exo( plus it looks ugly)
Rusted floor boards and spots on the cab
huge fuel tank
No isolated for dual batteries
No rear brakes- ie they removed them
Things it needs to wheel the creek and other mild places
Warranty two batteries
Go to junkyard and get brakes
Oh yeah it cost less than what I have invested in the Frickoneer at this point
Fill cooler
What it

Oh yeah the motor was rebuilt 4-5 years ago when he first built he truck into a wheeler. Sits on 35/16/15 boogers on 15x10 chrome wheels. Tires have varying tread from 50% to New. Wheelbase is supposedly at 101".

Truck seems to run good, engine seems to be in good shape. The TBI wiring is interesting in a good way. That was one thing I was afraid of, I did not Frick to have some chopped together harness, and while it is not a perfect harness, it is better than some hack jobs. The guy removed a steering column, computer, and engine from a 1991 suburban. He then installed the column, engine, and computer. Then the wiring harness pretty much "plugged and played". The down side is none of the dash stuff works, but on a rig like this you really just need headlights and wipers.

I would think you could hook up most of the dash stuff. At least you should be able to find places to stick the stock oil and coolant sensors. This is if he didn't hack that wiring off.
Sorry moved frick's thread into karl's intead of the oter way around. Still works though

The dash gauges are 1 wire hookups that are completely independent of the TBI ****. Get a coaster manual and trace wiring harnesses.
