My New Girl! :)

Here is a new girl I just picked up. I needed her for her engine and transmission for my GMC shorty...but I don't know...she is growing on me!









Plus I got all the free NEW parts that are in the floorboard!!!

Drive it! You can find a used motor/trans anytime. You can't find a good old truck in that shape everyday. Cheers, Pat

I've seen a lot of um and from what I see here, I can tell you that's not a "Parts Truck". Looks like an all day, every day driver to me.
