Re: 72 Suburban Making it mine

Woke up early saturday morning. Weather calling for super hot conditions, mid 90's for temps but nearly 100% humidity, it was swampy... Real feel was like 110*

So up and at it at 5:30 am, still sweat like crazy and drank 3 gatorades in the 4 hours I was working.

I was able to get the drive shaft back on and the exhaust put back on for now. Sealed up the trans pan, swapped out the ARP pan bolts. At this point it was 7:30 and I felt it was to early to start it with no mufflers... I found other things to tinker with, and about 8:30 I fired it up! Love open exhaust and cam lol

It moved out of the shed and back. The goal for the weekend was to make it mobile again. I have a few vehicles needing oil changes and tires rotated.

In the next couple of months I'm planning to take it to have the exhaust done, love to do it my self but just no time. I hope to drive it regularly again after labor day time frame.
