NEW PAL, "SuperDave"!

Can't even say how cheap I got this, I promised the guy... Fairly mint condition 1995 v6 5-speed, 160,000 miles... Ready for a 3.4 but I will likely do the head gasket repair first, because otherwise, it runs perfect, this 3.0..... I'm not sure if I'm going to start another thread or not. I think I've just been way too long on hiatus from here and no one's really following along much anymore so... I just thought I would at least show it before I get started on transforming it. Hope everyone has a great week!

Great looking runner you got. Reminds me of the one I had that was nearly identical to it. Rust got the best of it. They are some great trucks. I have checked in on Instagram and keep up with what you have done. I keep checking in on your build thread. Hope all is going well.

Hope everything is going good down your way.
