I'm not positive but i think 1980 was the first year of the square headlight.

i looked at the registration today...its an 80, i think it has a grill kit or something, because its not quite like my truck, but not the 80 style...but for $250 i cant really go wrong, even though the engine knock LOUD...im thinking about getting a student loan and rebuilding it (in a garage this time, not in the yard...but my other truck does still run after rbuilding it in the yard :x)

Ok...with the signed title resting in my pocket...the objective has changed...


i started it today for the first time...

it runs rather well, sounds like its missing, but about once every 45sec(more random) it makes a lous clank like somethings catching on something...i dont know if its a rod or what, but i plan to take the intake off and find out...ashton...the journey begins...AGAIN :x

but its a hell of a lot better than my truck...
so for $250 I'm pretty happy with my new project...and it has a recently serviced TH-400
