Sometimes I find my self liking Cheyenne a bit more. Recently the motor in my car decided it wanted to suffer from a cracked block and the need of major repair. Considering the work needed for it would cost more then I paid for the car and other issues it was having I decided to start looking for a new vehicle. This is when I discovered that sometimes living in out in the country has it’s advantage.
I found an old (1986) Chevy pickup on a horse ranch for $300. It’s big, ugly and rather obscene. Needless to say, I wanted it when I first saw it. Deciding to play it safe we decided I would not buy it until I heard it run and that I would not spend much time to make that happen. Yesterday, we went back over with a can of carb cleaner and some starting fluid. After less then 5 mins, the old beast sprang to life. It needs a bit of work, but since it is as old as it is, I can do almost all the work myself. I have some plans for this truck and pics will be coming soon.
