Default Got me a "new" truck.

I just bought me a 1991 Chevy 1500 with a 350 in it. Its a pretty decent truck. I paid 325.00 for it. Need to put about 300 into it to get it legal to drive on the road. It needs a tune up, tires, and registration fees...Needless to say the truck has 240K miles on it and still running strong. It does need front axles but the rear is strong. I am hoping that it lasts me for atleast a few months. I will get pictures up tomorrow as long as its not raining. I already got the plugs and air filter for it today.

350s are cheap and last a long time. parts for them are a dime a dozen.

While doing a tune uo the other day I found a mouse that decided to make the top of the intake plenum its home. Needless to say it wasn't alive when I found it. Got my axles changed, too lazy to do it myself so I payed 400 for both front axles...put some seafoam in it today hoping for that to help my emission problem.
