I have a couple 350s laying around in case I wanted to throw one in mine but I think it would be a bit much for the little thing. Would definitely need wider rear tires, they already break loose easy with the 4.3. I'm not sure the wife would let me do it anyways, technically it's her truck.

Here's a pic of the headliner, only thing we found that sorta fit the theme:

I've always wanted to build a big bad LUV 4wd

I remember back in the 70's wanting to get a Luv just to buy that stepside bed kit for it. Didn't happen..

Nice one! The friend who's Sonoma I showed in a thread above lent me the Sonoma he now owns. It's a 4cyl/5spd. I might be buying it. That thing breaks the rear wheels loose easily. This friend also built another Sonoma, looks almost exactly like this one, that he put an LS motor in and converted it to AWD using Escalade system. A real sleeper

Here is the 4-banger I'm driving. First one is packing out of a swap meet and the other two were at a house I work on. It's different working out of a small truck. I had to come up with a way to haul 12' 1/4 round trim. I can lay that inside of my Suburban

I took those pictures yesterday. It's dirty but it looked good with the leaves, so...

Thanks for contributing to this 'rather' slow sub-forum along. I know what you are saying on all counts. Great little go-getters. I put a lot on the black '99 back in March. I did a job for my sister that required gravel. She lives on a mountain and the road up was built steeper than a road should be (unpaved). I'll say that load made climbing the steepest section no problem. But the poor little truck. We filled 5 gallon buckets at the farm co-op, enough buckets to fill the bed and not slide around. I think we made three trips. she was nose-up/tail down for sure
