Between the heat and the humidity, I might actually get one thing done this summer, weight loss!

With that said, brought the new parts truck home today. It is an '89 gmc with a '94 and up style grille.. So that is the style that I am going to go back with. Truck might end up having something good about it that I didn't think it would. The guy I bought it from said it was a repo (his car lot) and the motor was bad, wouldn't turn over/locked up. Got it home and see that the starter is missing.. I put a breakover bar on the crank pulley bolt and the motor does turn with enough resistance that one should have with the spark plugs in it. Next minor project will be get a starter back on this truck and see if it runs!.. Might be able to make my small investment back without issue, ha.
