That could be lots of fun. I'd beat him down on price a little bit.

GM trucks are so cheap to build.... I was thinking about one yesterday as I was tearing parts off a 56 Buick sitting in a field at a friends place.

Yeah that's also a nice motivator. If it was a 4-speed, I would've already driven it home. I suppose a full manual valve body could be relatively fun.

I seriously dig this.

That is very much like what I would want. I am a minimalist so I would want it clean. I want a carb motor, no computers. I would be okay with upgrading brakes and suspension but I don't need to go to air bags with in-car controllers.

I really should unsubscribe to this thread. It's torturing me and I might do something rash!
