I was involved in a rescue mission today!

[Clelan]

I rescued my truck that I abandoned at least 5 years ago. Like a dummy I thought it would start, but no way. So my 70 year old mom towed me home 19 miles so it could be somewhere I could work on it. We both had a great time!

Beauty! At some point I plan on lifting this one. It's a 91, so it has the later grill, but still basically the same truck.

I've got to get it running so I can move it in and out of the garage to work on it this winter. Then the transmission is leaking like crazy between the bell housing and motor. I hope it's the torque convertor seal. The body is totally shot so I need 2 front fenders and a driver's door. I will modify the wheel openings so the 38" tires will actually fit. The goal is for this to be my winter hot rod, and my Duster will be my summer hot rod. It will likely get a home sprayed military themed O.D. green paint job. I'll keep updates coming as they happen.
