Default OT....another dailey driver (not a vette)

I just purchased this 87 Grand Wagoneer last week. I believe it has a spun bearing, but I also have a QS 9000 factory reman long block that I picked up yesterday for $750.00. Looks like this will be on the road before the vette.
:cool:

Looks good. I just made a comitment to an 89 bronco with 180,000 miles on it. I can't tell you how dissapointed in myself I am for buying a ford but it was 700 bucks and I need something to get to work in since I wrecked my camry last year. I'm excited to have something big enough to tow whatever behind though. should be a lot of fun. maybe they sell a bumper sticker somewhere "my other car is a chevy"
