Yeah, I am used to it now. I think I have only been around online for one maybe two TUT changeovers. This is normal for me.

so apparently the truck i was looking at is in need of a front end rebuild, flasher, wiper relay. approxiamtely 2 grand. and the mechanic said that after a cold start he heard some piston slap
googled the piston slap, and it seems like something that the chebby's will do for a loong loong time with no real ill effects.

so if I can pick up a 97 for 4500, throw 2000 at the front end and electrical, and potentially need a new 350 in a year or two, have I won?

assuming 3 grand for the motor, that puts me in for 9500 on a 97, absolutely rust free with a new motor

I think I might just go there.

opinions?

Quote DD ; I've heard good things about the MT21's . . .

They wear well and have good grip in a straight line but be careful when cornering. The grip when banked over can be a little unpredictable.

I woke up to a TUT Deja Vu as I was looped in the last one and couldn't get out. I had to wake up a little to find the New TUT...

thank gawd it was not the - I'll start the new TUT... No, I will... Oh look, Woody started one too, nightmare of the last one.

Maybe we should take a pole of what the poll should be... or just poke it several times.

Like Claudia, I must be getting old.

Mornin' Mickldo! Got those pics yet or did you find the camera.

If there are so few of the first baby, there very well may be none of the third or forth.

Make sure you make copies of all you have to several different kinds of media and don't forget to make the required archival prints as a just in case. My sister had gotten double pics of her first child and always sent one of the sets to my mom. Mom's set came in real handy when sister's apartment burned down and they lost everything except their pajamas and the baby. She was digging through the ashes the days after the fire looking for hubby's wedding ring and anything else that survived the disaster.

I know nothing like that will happen to you but always better safe than sorry. You can't rely on me since the only copy of a pic I snagged of you was the one with the longtail tuna.

I did not realize when I awoke and flipped the switch that IE hadn't refreshed and I just went into the #29.

Gosh I am rambling... what I need are shorter posts to buttress the count.

Stinky quote: I just saw the strangest truck in Alamosa. It was white, looked like a J7 with no top, pickup bed and silver rims. The truck was white and was on the back of a semi with a bunch of other equipment...

Yoop quote: Mine truck. HZJ78 probably



Early 75's had bolt on roofs and fold down windscreens. Later 78's lost that. The cabs on the later ones are all one piece. Not sure what date they swapped though.
