My search for a shorty D100 is over

For those not bound by Nazi California smog crap (and we have all seen and proven that alot of aftermarket parts actually improve smog levels and performance on a given car/truck) there's a NICE 85 /6 short bed (green) in the Carolina's on eBay I've been watching. Fresh 66 /6 in it (first thing I noticed in underhood pix was the drool tubes) last I seen it was at hair short of $5g with reserve not met.
I've had /6s as well as 318s that surprised me in how well they ran. I'm in my 3rd /6 truck owned. My current 85. Though it's a long bed.
I purposely rebuilt a /6 to put back in there, I sold the original running/6 which went right back between a set of fender wells within a couple days of it leaving here. I actually wanted to see what I could make one of those engines do. I can always change it again, if it doesn't do what I expect. I have a build thread about 3 years buried... Sorry some of it plays out like a "war and peace" deal haha
