What to Do????
I need to replace the engine in my '61 Wagon. While at it I also want to swap the Muncie 4 speed to an automatic ...just too old to be shifting.
Anyway thru Craigslist I found and bought this '79 Chevy Camper Special from the original 86 year old owner who bought and had a dealer install a 350 crate engine and had the th400 rebuild...he provided receipt for the parts and labor. Wow what a find and during the drive home, I realize that the truck was nice and tight, very well taken care of and was in excellent running condition plus it's all original. When I got home I thoroughly inspected it and realize that it would be a crime to pull the engine and tranny out on this original 109K mile truck with 9K miles on the new crate motor and rebuilt tranny, and then to part out the truck What to do...what to do Last edited by Seon; 10-21-2009 at 11:00 AM. |
