Thanks... it needs some TLC... and also fix things the "right" way. I'm not looking to get crazy with it... I'm going get rid of my Intrepid and use this as my DD... MAYBE.

Also, drug this pile home....plain jane, 6 cyl, 3 speed. The springs have been torched, so it's on the snubbers all around. It needs to come back up. Plan is to get it somewhat presentable for as cheap as possible and just drive back and forth to work.

Today I want and looked at an '87 3+3 duallie, carb'd 454, lowered, Alcoas, etc....will be bringing her home maybe next weekend. She's straight and fairly clean, but the red paint is faded/peeling....

Got the new LS motor on the stand. Fixed wifes car radiator, took my 2yr old to a birthday party, cleaned up the garage and contemplated pulling my truck apart for the conversion.

69BBsuburban my wife has an 01 nissan altima and I feel your pain with those intake gaskets. I basically had to make my own tools to fix it especially trying to install the passenger side manifold bolts.

Used the truck to haul all of the lumber and concrete for 65 feet of privacy fence. That was the easy part. The hard part was tearing down and rebuilding 65 feet of privacy fence. I'm still hurting from all the work, and I finished it Friday!

I replaced my radiator in record time. I thought it was going to take forever because every time I go to do something simple on this truck it fights me.
