Re: They keep following me home....I cant stop!

What a beautiful truck... I love the plans for it, including the opportunity for it to find another home if necessary.

Beautiful truck!

Re: They keep following me home....I cant stop!

Nice find ,wish I could find them like that .Did you see the 72 subarban in the Atlanta Craigslist ? I called on it ,he wants $1000 for it . It has bucket seats too .Im not going to buy it as I would rob parts off of it for my truck and it deserves to be saved.

Sorry guys...no one stepped up to "save it".....the ruining of the truck has begun....If it brings you any comfort though, the 6 banger is getting used in project 'Race Truck".

Re: They keep following me home....I cant stop!

Looking good!! Like the wheels too. I am a fan of the I-6's, but certainly have no problem with you putting the V8 in it. These trucks are great, you can do about anything to them and they still look great.
