This ole girl sat in a barn for 20 years with a blown head gasket. The guy sold it to me with 105,*** original miles and gave me an extra engine for 250 bucks. I spent about 600 in bearings and brakes and tires and she was running on the road like a dream. The engine I put in was just a free (besides my time) temporary fix until i find a good engine. Right now the front end needs new bushings and the engine has burned around 7 gallons of oil in 9000 miles. it's time for some work! here is a picture of when I found it and what it looks like now! and a link to it running

Nice score! A lot of work is ahead of you. Sometimes I wonder if all this work is worth it... Some nice $50k trucks out there :)

I haven't seen any engines yet. Been looking for once since the last time we chatted
