well the day has came where i had to part ways with my 79 sleeper luv. im taking on a 88 GMC S15 xcab street/strip truck and using the small block and my TH350 i had in my 79 Luv. BUT i recently brought a 78 long bed luv for a daily beater. the motor isnt any good so im about to drop a 1.8L and a 4sp out of my old 81 Luv in it. i will have pics posted up soon of all 3 trucks (my old 79 Luv S/B, my 88 S15 and my new chevy luv)...it just goes too tell that saving engines and tannys will come in handy some day lol

that is true. specially on that 78 Luv..the truck been sitting up in a car port for 10 years and the guy had some goats that roamed around near it and busted the grill up and broke the driver side window out. luckly ill be getting my hands on a couple of parts trucks here within a couple of weeks so i can get what i need to get this luv going. only gave $50 for it just 2 get it out of the old man way. got a clear title with it.

on that S15, i brought that off of my dad for 1800 and it has some slight body damage confined to the passenger side fender,bumper and hood. but i already got a NOS fender and chrome bumper from LMC Truck already mounted on it. and i just put on the 4" cowl induction fiberglass Harwood hood with the 4 hood pins and zose fastners on it. just waiting on my Hedman converison kit, the axles and the posi trac too come in for it.

You got a good deal on that Luv. Wish I could find one like that but there aren't too many Luvs in Iowa.
