Got me a new project
Since I'm in the process of starting my own business, I'm gonna need a good, reliable work truck. I don't want to put a lot of miles or wear and tear on my '97.
My grandfathers old '83 prospector has been sitting in a field for a few years since he passed away. I talked to my aunt and she said I could have it if I wanted. I'm goin to look at it Friday and see if I can resurrect it. I'll get some pics up then

I'm gonna try to go take a look at it before work tomorrow and see if I can tell what it'll need to at least get it moved to my house. I'm hoping it won't take much to get her running. The wife wouldn't like me spending more money on another truck lol

Since I'm ready to get my business on the road, I'm going to look at an '88 in Dallas this Friday to use as a work truck and this one will be solely a restoration. Once I get her running good, interior finished and paint, I'm thinking old school hemi swap
