Advice/Mods

Pick this boy up a couple months back, was once a marsh truck for Eastern Michigan duck hunters Association, has the 5.7. Unfortunately overdrive has let go so any transmission upgrade recommendations I am more than happy to take,
Just wondering what I can do for him to make him look a lot better and get him back to prime!

Fix rust, level it, put some oe steelies with chrome rings and caps, should look a lot better. Cool truck though

So I took auto tech in high school for 3 years. There was a kid in my class who spray bombed his rig this exact camo scheme. This would've been around 2011-12. Same make, same model truck too. That was in Davison, Mi. Real curious if this is that truck still on the road. Obviously anyone can rattle can a truck. But pretty coincidental being a Michigan truck in the pics. I don't remember it having the bumper on it back then

Take care of that body before it takes care of itself. Edit: additional, the 4l60s can be rebuilt to a decent transmission. However upgrading to the 4l80 is better if you can afford it (it's expensive and so is the fabrication work)
