My project hasn't yet been delivered, but I don't have the time to fiddle with it anyway.
I might see it I can get it delivered for Christmas, as I have a few days off and the weather is better..

I hope you all had a very Merry Christmas! We still have 2 more Christmas celebrations to attend and then maybe it will be back to getting stuff of my own done. I guess I'll get this running next year....
I did get the GMC home but have to go back for the rest of it..... Oh, and his dad has a 72 suburban I want in a bad way. It never ends.

Thanks Charlie! I have had 3 70-72 burbs and sold them all for one reason or another. If I get this one I'll just sell something else and keep it for a family cruiser. There's a yard about 25 minutes from me that has several rusty ones. I tried buying a K20 version from him that is missing the engine and is really rusty. $2500 is what he's asking. I don't need on that bad.

My project didn't find its way to my yard yet. But that's ok, my back enjoyed the down time. Hope everyone had a merry Christmas and here's to a happy new year..

Check this out.
Current and not a piece of trash in a junk yard.

Or do you have a trailer that will tow 2 finds?

I think there is a different market in your part of the world than here. Check this out, not bad for the price.

That first burb would make someone in the rust belt a good ride. The last one is a nice truck too. I'm not really shopping for one though. I kind of happened across this GMC by chance. I have very little in it too which helps.

I finally got some good work time in on the Camaro. I got all the front suspension done now on to the rear. The new springs definitely made a big difference. First pic is before.
