Welcome to the forum! Ask around there are a lot of people that are on top of things! What kind of truck are you looking for? Uses for the trucks...etc?

I was thinking of using it for offroading some, but eventually moving south where vehicles like the mini trucks are allowed on public roads.But if i would get one within a year or so im going to drive it some on the roads illegally.

Off topic, but I saw your screen name, Caddymankc, and figured you were a Cadillac fan. New? Old?

I've got a Pink '55 "custom" that is a work in progress. I've got a bored 500 to put in it with a turbo 400 behind it.

You have a toy like that and didn't tell me? ****. I'd love to see that one, when it's done. I had a 1959 Mercedes 190D for a while. Hated to sell it, but couldn't afford to rebuild the engine. :(

It's at home in the barn and the "new" motor is at the shop awaiting a freshening up. Here's a picture:

It will be even better with the 535 hp Cadillac motor through dual exhaust. It was great with the stock and original (needs lead additive) 331 with straight lake pipes, but the motor was getting weak and I thought what better to replace it with but another Caddy motor. The car is very solid, still has the original undercoating. I believe it to have under 100k miles (odometer was broken) Interior needs to be completely replaced however. It was an original green car, so the original green interior with pink outside is a great color combination.

Yeah im a caddy fan pre 85 and some new caddys are nice, my dad had a 1980 eldorado diesel and that thing was a beast, im looking for another diesel but those 5.7 olds are getting hard to find actually running, thats a nice caddy you got!
