You know, 25 years ago I was thinking the exact same thing about you and your car back then: How could this guy be so crazy as to be cleaning and polishing and primping such a nice car and then just show it. How could he NOT want to beat the hell out of it? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img]

BTW for those who don't remember that old thread, my old 1986 K2500 Suburban was medium gold with a bright blue interior. </div></div>

LMAO. Point well taken.
I trust you made it home with no further adventures. See ya next year.

Dave

When you own a 6.5 Turbo Diesel you are often faced with enormous trials and tribulations... I know, I own one as well and mine is down &quot;AGAIN&quot; right now [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/dunno.gif[/img].. You could send it out to Montana for a professional Cummins engine install. I don't know what they charge.

Here's my problem child... a 2000 model that has cost me more in repairs than the initial purchase price.

I have a 1984 F350 Dually with a STOUT 460. You can have the truck for cheaper than whatever you need to do to the Sub..... Just sayin!

Nope, not me. My hair had already started to turn grey. LOL. I also would not be wearing a classic yellow tennis outfit with calf high socks. Is that what you Jersey guys wore back in the day? I am home on the computer instead of the office that sometimes blocks the pics. Yep, that's the car. Great times you were clicking off with that car. Great seeing you again after all these years even if it was just for a few minuets back in 1989. Hope things work out on the the Suburban.

Dave
