Re: My newest and perhaps greatest truck score to date
I have gotten the truck running in the last few weeks. Had to clean about half of a yard bag worth of acorn shells, leaves, etc from under the hood and cowl area.
Fired up and ran good. Smoked a while but eventually cleared up. It was down several quarts of trans fluid so once I sold my kidney to buy some trans fluid it moved on it's own.
I even used it to do truck stuff! Picked up a set of tires I had mounted for my Suburban.
My 3yr old daughter helped me put some rally wheels on it - my GMC centers are super nice so I had to use them. And then finally got it in the garage for the first time in a long time.
Found the missing Super glove box emblem inside the glovebox with the barrel nuts still attached so put that back on for a finishing touch.
