Thread: new truck

Congratulations. I'm trying to convice SWMBO that I need a Chevy Z71 Pick Up She disagrees. Want's to "Wait" , Wait for what...? Why do they always want to wait....?
Labor day in the US has historically been a good day to buy a Vehicle....

What's wrong with the motor?

Still, the body looks in great shape. As long as you can fix the motor it should last a long time.

this is my first store bought truck my other truck is an 86 ford f 150 and we re built her from a frame up.

You be flash as a rat with a gold tooth!!!! Good onyou mate, and as Nessmuck says fill it with ALL kinds of fur !!
I still rattle around in my ancient 76 F250 with a 351 clevo running a 1/4 race can and Holley 600 double pumper. It occasionally gets a fill of fur too !!
Now for your gun rack and roof mounted spottys!!

Cheers

Have fun feeding it. The 250 V10 got around 10mpg, my 150 with the big 5.4 gets all of 14. I spend most of my time on the motorcycles, trucks are for truck work. And hauling assorted dead critters.

I wasn't the only one thinking that then!

The motor has a cylinder not firing and it has a crack manifold, nothing major for us. The steerign colum needs new bushings also.


The 76 is a good year ford, I have a 351 winser in my other truck. it doesent do too bad on gas belive it or not we seem to be gett about 19 to the gallon that on back roads so hopefully once we get the motor strightened out it will improve a bit.
