Probably best to find a same model year running ProStar for $15k or so and use it as a parts truck. Probably less expensive for a whole truck than just an engine l bet. Plus you would have a spare windshield, HVAC, transmission etc. You could part it out to repay yourself or just keep the parts for your LoneStar.

By the time you are all set and done, together with your purchase, you will be like 60k in this Frankenstein set up and then who knows how well will everything work.
To do this kind of work you gotta be a mechanic and do a lot of work yourself. Honestly this will be an insane and stupid project. Put this thing back on the auction, go buy yourself a nice rebuilt 1999 truck for 50-60k and don't torture yourselfSL3406, jsnell, Socal Xpress and 1 other person Thank this. -
