Well this is probably a completely backwards way of doing it,but after mine and beckys health scares this year and business getting better more contracts coming through etc,i decided to finally get a parts/general work horse/bit of fun.
I sold the MR2 and got a good price for it and went on the hunt,i needed to get a loan to consolidate my loan and a couple of cards anyway and finally found this,i have always wanted a truck just like i always wanted a muscle car and fell for this almost instantly
1982 GMC 350ci 4 speed auto th400 petrol/LPG conversion ex US air force truck,been running around a farm the last couple of years,a bit rattly,a bit noisy,a bit smelly but a whole Lotta fun

There is one of those for sale down the road, it has a crane on the back for towing! Think he wants $350 for it.

LOL i will take a picture of the old one that came off,completely battered,rusty and the filter itself looked like it had been used to sieve rocks from dirt.

Got a few plans for it,service,under-seal underneath,fix that damn rattly exhaust and tidy up the engine bay a touch
