It sure is! Drove it around a little more on Sunday and Monday so that we could get some trees cut around the house.




The carb is dumping wayyyyy too much fuel at idle, so gotta dig into that. Also, the transmission isn't extremely happy at the moment. I'm wondering if that might be why it was parked 20 years ago. I'll be dropping the pan and replacing the filter in the next week or two.
I also need to wash the truck now that it "runs and drives." Tried to clean the windows a little with some Windex today, but that barely did anything. Needs lots of soapy water
