Today was the nicest day so far this spring. It was sunny and 22 degrees outside (72 F). I took my '69 GMC out for a very short spin and it was great. I just bought the truck last summer and have been working to get it ready to license. Just rebuilt the front end and does it ever handle tight. I've been driving my '76 GMC with a 350 all winter and was pleasently surprized by the little 250 in my '69. I pumped the pedal a few times and she started right up. I idled it for a minute or two and went for a drive. Compared to the small block, the inline 6 is sure a smooth motor. I just wish it had more power.
Anyway, thanks for reading my ramblings. ![]()

Past: '05 Sierra 4x4 - Had 270,000 KM and running well when it was written-off by a stop sign runner. '94 F-150 from the "F word" company. I'll admit it...good truck. Sold what was left of it for $800 to a guy who came to pick it up at 11:00 PM with cash in hand. Hmm. '79 Sierra Grande (Black) organ donor - perfect rebuildable 4-bolt 350 and a good TH350. '76 Sierra Grande (Orange) - hate isn't too strong a word. Kid who bought it turned it into a hot rod. '68 C-10 R.I.P. - Dad's old truck...too far gone to resurrect. '59 C-50 - with hoist. Truck is gone, wife isn't. Nuff said. |
