Took care of the Safety Recall - Front Passenger Airbag Takata Inflator - Priority Group 9 at the local GMC dealer.

Great service, nice facility and done in about 2 hours. Asked him to replace the cracked dash while they were in there and we both laughed .

Had some maintenance done at my buddy's shop recently.

-New serpentine belt.
-New A/C belt and tensioner.
-New power brake booster and master cylinder.
-Replaced transmission lines from transmission to cooler.
-Removed transmission pan, cleaned magnet (nothing out of the ordinary spotted), changed gasket and installed new filter. Added 6 quarts of Dexron VI fluid.

This is what I was looking at maybe for a project with my son …. But again the mechanic said don’t do it.

It was in very rough shape all over even though the price was attractive.

Had that square body smell.

That's a good candidate for a full frame off restoration. LMC Truck, Brothers Truck would be your friends to zero time that old gal. Kid would love it too, memories for a lifetime.

Back in Fort Lauderdale? Hope you got a garage this time!

Yes FLL. Agreed all the above ^^. It is tempting, but that one might be a bit too much work, at least for right now.

There are a few other larger ticket items that the missus may not take kindly to me grabbing that right now if you know what I mean. At least she has her DD.

I've seen some nicer, less rusted, already partially modded with normal maintenance done versions out West in the same price range. They keep popping up all the time in that 67-86 range and not stupid $$ or in as rough a shape as that one is. Vision, timing and money. The Infinity stones have not all aligned yet after our Blip.
