That's what I'm trying to tell him too!!

Thanks for the comments guys!

Manny....there's this old saying....there are two kinds of people, those who finish what they start......and so on!

As clean as that truck is he probably had to drop his panties in addition to the coin.

Paid $4000 for it. The guy was selling it so cheap because there was an engine oil leak that he thought had to be fixed by drilling and tapping the block............all is was, was the oil pressure line was broke!!! $6 fix!! Runs smooth as hell too.

Plans are in the works for a turbo'd LS motor. We'll see what happens!

I'm partial to the stock colors, and the idea of a big block. Sharp truck, wish I had it.
