Yup, thats right, a chevy love 
. My friend has one, its been totally thrashed, and something is up with the tranny so its not moving, I think something is up with the clutch. Anyways, he only wants $100...and I was thinking if I could pick up a cheap diesel swap motor/tranny, it would be a cool little truck. We cut the rear bed so that the back end could fit 31" 
so the body has some "modifications" done to it. We put a stack on it, with a glass pack, so this thing in my book is just way cool. Wouldnt have to worry about scratching it.
So, any idea's as to what kind of motor could fit in. I'm not worried about major modification. I figure I could swap in a half ton 2wd front end (fab it in), a ford 9" rear end, and lots, and lots of frame beefing up. Plus, I would probably extend the cab, cause being 6'5" it would be a tight fit.
I need a cheap, powerful (or easily modded) diesel that can go in.
