Re: Chucks SWB Fleetside

I know I just kick myself because its probably my fault for letting the motor sit for 2 yrs. I should've started it sooner.

Re: Chucks SWB Fleetside

Ahh you can blame yourself if you want to but guys buy old cars that have sat for years and get them running with no issues!! Who knows if it would have been different if you had started it sooner.

Luck of the draw they say. Really not a thing that can't be done in a few hours and you have help do its much more fun.

Re: Chucks SWB Fleetside

Yeah, I got some great buds. I'm just disappointed. I wanted the mechanics to be done already.

True, I talked to my builder today and he said that he hadn't have one do that in a long time. That he wished he had a stand to break them in before putting them in a vehicle. I don't blame him. Parts can go anytime. I think my letting it sit for a while didn't help but who knows. I just gotta get it done.

Yes it does. But I picked up the parts today and I'll start draining coolant tonight.

Re: Chucks SWB Fleetside

I would not beat your self up about letting it sit. My burb had not been on the road since 2005 and my I had another one that sat for over ten years.
