Re: phew she's home!
well i was doin some clean up work on the engine and in the process i knocked the hot wire off the battery going to the starter and hence it wouldnt start well i didnt have to parts to fix it at the moment so when she got home she asked me why it was in the street and i told her it wouldnt start so she told me it was being sold. then i convinced her nothing was seriously wrong. and i got the parts to fix her and she started up without hesitation.

Ditch it and put on a steel filter. Not as purty, to be sure, but it's a damn sight better than a burned up (or down) truck. Just my .02.

Re: phew she's home!
Just remember that just because you got a smokin deal on it dont sell it in the future knowing you'll make money, you will find out it was worth more to you than you ever realized. Believe me thats where I am at now.

Re: phew she's home!
What i've been told is to get a steel one, they last and don't warp from heat

Re: phew she's home!
clean start man, it looks good and a solid start. . .few small fix-its and it would look clean as hell til the complete re do. . .if kansas is anythin like oklahoma. . .you can go to just about any salvage yard and get a very nice center a/c vent for like 10 bucks. . .(even without the hoses runing to it, it makes a big difference. . .) other than that and a head unit it doesn't look bad at all. . .
