Is it a waste of money to send in a Blackstone oil sample for a 500 mile new short block? It seems like it would be to me.
I am at the alignment shop now. It took 30 minutes to get here from my home of horrors. I drove various speeds and hit various highway speeds without issue. She drove well but needs an alignment badly.
I think I’ll break in the engine and swap the oil. Drive it a little more and put her up for sale.
Not sure what I’ll ask. She needs some interior work and some exterior work to get her tight, neat, and wrinkle-free. Maybe new seats and door cards. I have new carpet.
Lots to think about.
Which gets me thinking about the 40th. Depending on where I move my family, that 40th MIGHT become the farm cruiser. Meant for hauling a small trailer. OR restore her to her OG glory.
Or build her like an off-road monster.
