About 6 months ago, the 69 picked up a very prominent ROD knock. So I get the trailer and tow her home and park her out back. I miss her so bad. I have a nice 99 Dodge Cummins diesel to pull the race car, but miss the 69 immensly. She still starts, I drove her down the street cause I miss her so bad. When I came home I just pulled her into the garage and tomorrow she starts coming apart. Oh let me tell you about one mad woman. Bathroom floor this, front yard that. Will they ever learn.

So the big decision is:
1. Just get a crank kit and a rod, ring and bearing it and put her back on the road.

2. Put vortec heads on it when done and put her back on the road.

3. add 71 "RUST FREE CAB" to either option.

4. Add 71 "RUST FREE CAB" to 69 4X4 frame with option 1 or 2.

5. Get rid of wife and buy one 67-72 for each option.
