There are many guys around here if you are in need of any help, me included.
Long trips always get me worried. Let me know if I can help if things turn sour.

oh you know him? Guess he's more interested in his chevelle now. He was on CK5. Nice guy. I got some extra interior parts, billet grill, poly bushing kit, a bunch more. I haven't gone through the boxes yet.
Ahhh so you're the one who stole that thing... I was beginning to think it would never sell. Nice buy!

not sure if i really "stole" it. I think it was a fair price for both of us. i just didn't want to deal with rust. I got it for 5k. No rust, fresh tranny rebuild on the th350 and the motor is strong. I'm happy with it.

what are u planning on doing to it? personally id leave it as original as i could.
Damn, that's nice. Good score even for $5K. If I had it in SoCal I would make it a wheeler and turn my '72 back into original condition. Nothing like a full 'vert, smog exempt wheeler in CA.

frame off resto. I'll keep the steel tub, sand blast and pant it. I'm buying a fiberglass tub but I'm not doing anything too extreme ass far as off roading. It'll get babied. My 85' is what I'm gonna crawl, and trail drive.
