Just poping in to repost something from another forum which I've been in for the last couple days;

most of the engine parts (iirc) were very close to this casting date;



I know this is no big dollar deal here, but for me numbers matching is something often heard of, but seldom seen ~ especially for a model which has typically been driven hard, and eventually thrown away;
no more dead in here?

well guys, or the guys who still read this thread! lol

I think i've reached a point where i've hit a wall. With my truck i mean, it's pretty much got the performance end of it all done to it. the only thing to customize would be the exterior and interior.

Since I picked up a semi-classic truck that lots of people recognize and love just the way it is, I think it's time to part ways with it. I'm still in the grey area between selling and keeping it.

just thought i'd get your guy's opinions on the matter. I know Jonathan is gonna say keep the damn thing!because it's a truck that isn't seen much and does haul ass! lol

Nice! I just installed those exact same taillights, heh. Pretty sweet.

How much was the trunk? That looks pretty good. Kinda weird without the backup lights, not bad, but weird.

I got the trunk for a group but price. It's 899 on their website plus shipping.

Cyclones are harder to find than this truck! Doubt I'd get another truck unless it's a daily driver.

I got a line in a supra that needs some work in stony plain. Might go look at it when I get back
