This is where my truck sat for roughly 20 years. I got started maybe
once or twice every couple of years nd driven a few miles a couple of times.
Geof lives about 2 1/2 miles up the canyon from me.
Some loggers owned it and they used it to fight a fire while logging if
one ever started. So it used to be a fire apparatus.
That's a 300 gallon water tank, the pump and the hose. We lifted out of
the bed of the truck with his tractor the day I bought it.
When I asked Geof it he would sell it to me and he said to let him think about it.
The next day he told me he'd take $800 for it.
I went to the bank and got some cash out and gave him $1200.
He asked why?? I told him I still felt like I was ripping him off.
He's the one that provided the space and told to do the engine transplant.
Geof is always going the extra mile for people.
This is his project. We were talking a while back and he said the
only thing he was lacking in the engine department was an
aluminum intake manifold. So we talked about the different
ones and he said he was planning on buying a Weiand intake.
Its a very healthy 1970 460.
I surprised him with a new Weiand Stealth manifold.
He said that's way too much.
Not quite so Monday I'll pick up a gift card for the best steakhouse in town for he and his wife.
They are both wonderful people.
