Long time, no visit. But I bear good news.
 

Its been a while since I've been on this board... I've defected to the Honda network of forums, for obvious reasons.

Anyways, on to the good news. The guy I sold Ol' Red to, has him back on the road!!

Ma and sis snagged these spy photos Sat. morning...

Apparently he has been trying to resolve the motor issue b/c he was in contact with my dad. And he came by today to show it to me (that he had it running) but I was working an 11-hour shift :( BUT he promised to try and come by again to show me. Pops said it was sounding MEAN, most likely a crate 350 with a little sometin' in it, plus exhaust I'm sure.

I know he has somewhat ghetto plans for it but I'm OK with that, because I'd rather see it on the road, kickin' a$$ than rotting in a junkyard.

More pics when they become available.

Shoulda kept it Cliff. :D :)

Regardless, that is cool it's back on the pavement!

Re: Long time, no visit. But I bear good news.
 

^^ I was thinking exactly the same thing. But thats awesome its back on the road and not in a junkyard!

Re: Long time, no visit. But I bear good news.
 

Money and circumstance dictated I couldn't keep it. But who knows, I'd definately like to own another 73-87 down the road.

Pops said it was definatelly running very good, probably a crate 350 b/c it had a different intake than the Edlebrock we put on the 305, and it had headers and dual exhaust.

Thanks for stopping by. Good to hear from you and that old Red is alive and well with its new owner. Keep in touch.

Re: Long time, no visit. But I bear good news.
 

wow cool to see it still on the road man. Sorry you sold it but you did what had to be done.

Edit
Sorry for bringing this one back to the top i bet Cliff does not stop by here to often anymore. It is cool to see his ol truck up and running tho

Re: Long time, no visit. But I bear good news.
 

well its always bittersweet to see your ride on the road but its better than the junkyard
what are HIS plans for it and why not direct him here ??

Re: Long time, no visit. But I bear good news.
 

That's what is was thinking.

Hey cliff if and when you get another truck you may end up with a nicer one ie better optioned or maybe newer ie an '87 hang in there.

Re: Long time, no visit. But I bear good news.
 

Glad to see it is still on the road, but come on man a honda website???:chevy:

Re: Long time, no visit. But I bear good news.
 

Cool truck...Too bad you couldn't keep it...

Honda?? What's that??

Re: Long time, no visit. But I bear good news.
 

Nice to see it going again. Interesting that he took off the wheels and tires.

Re: Long time, no visit. But I bear good news.
 

slonaker, thats cool, I've always loved your truck and enjoyed your input on threads and you have a 2002, wow. I had a flawless 75 for about 8 years in the 80's, sold it when my second son was born, and now bought a 76 to fix up with the same son. I'd love to see a pix some time, thanks bob
