new 60' parts truck
dude's, found this on craigslist last week for the amazing sum of $100 bucks! and drove it home with legal licence tabs.(even had a $75 battery) the guys father passed and it was in the way. 235/3spd runs like a clock,shifts with one finger. the runing gear is going in my 54' suburban. the truck drives and stops fantastic and that makes it tough to put the death certificate on it(by pulling the motor out). even came with the operator's manual and found out it's a real low miles engine,the dad had it replaced shortly before he passed and he only drove it 100 miles or less each month to his farm.gonna do a compression test for the record because nothing worse than changing out a weak motor for one that has different issues. here is some pic's

Re: new 60' parts truck

Re: new 60' parts truck
 looks like it might get a V-8, just picked up a free rebuilt 84' olds 350/350 combo off of craigslist complete down to the starter. better in the front than laying in the back.
