35's and 36's are really exciting to get home and REALLY check to see what you got.

In a lot of cases, the deal has to be made fairly quickly, and there isn't time to check some of the details.

Like which engine do you have. 35's are ideal candidates for transplanted LB engines while 36's give you about a 50/50 chance of insert bearings. Hard to check at the time of sale.

Transmissions ... upgraded to blocker style or not. Maybe an LZ in there.

Rear end is the same. Usually don't check until it's home.

Can be some pleasant surprises. Worst case it's all stock which has its own virtues.

"deeprock", appreciate more pics when you get it home. Good job.
