Re: The Project Havoc....

So far I have managed to be towed 4 times in 3100 miles. fuel problems, ripped one shock right off the truck when cornering too hard, rear tires are cupped quite nicely!! trans slips bad, did a dyno run (more on that later). been good, hop in her, hit the key. and drive. takes my stress away. I really enjoy her the way she is, kinda hard to take her apart and redo her again.

I hear you there man. I drive mine every chance I get. Its the coolest grocery getter in town. I'd drive it to work if I could, but my job is to cover a territory and I rack up about 45000 miles a year on average, so I use the company car. But I dream of using my truck occassionaly for work and may do just that if the right circumstances happen.

It took me over 2 years to rebuild it and get it back on the road. That was difficult for me. So drive he snot out of it and maybe during one of these long cold winters we have, you'll get to the point when you tell yourself its time to finish her up.
