Hey what's up,
I live in Conyers, I've been here for .... 13-14 years also. I got a 75' Stepside Luv that I'm restoring. I'm about 3/4 done, now I need to get it painted now. I did a frame off job and been over a year since I started. Can't wait to get it back on the road again.

Like you I seen only a handful of Luvs here. Not many sources for parts here in Georgia but been having pretty good luck at the Pull-apart Junkyard near the airport.

hey, yeah i live in powder springs and i am also looking for restoration parts or scrounge up the money to airbag it. if you know of anywhere around here that can help me just let me know.

Yeah, I live in Locust Grove.
Plus, I got a buddy of mine that has been Luv struck. He lives in McDonough. (I traded him one of my Luv's for some parts. BTW, He's goin with a BUILT 340 Mopar in his!!!)
I try to get on here a couple times a week. Just work alot, married, 2 small kids, & trying to work on my Luv. Just not enough time, to do it all.

There's Luv parts in the Pull-apart junkyard???
I know in Fayetteville, the junkyards don't have much of anything from late 70's / early 80's left!!!!!
I know a couple guy's over there.......I ask them for a driveshaft out of a late 70's early 80's Camaro......they laughed at me!! Said, " We don't have anything THAT OLD ".

We'll have to meet up sometime / somewhere. And check out each others Luv's.
Although mine sittin in the garage, tore apart.

Lookin for another one.

There are two PullApart junk yards, one is in Norcross the other is in Conley. You can check there inventory online at http://www.pullapart.com. The inventory on the web is really accurate. I've never had a "bum steer" yet, and I've been there alot. However, I think they rotate the cars out evert 8 weeks or so, so you can't sit on for very log. Right now the Conley yard has a '80 and '81 Luv.

My Luv is in the garage now and will be on its way to the paint shop. I've installed a Buick 231 V6, TH-400 tranny and a Ford 8" rear. Hopefully I'll have it on the road in acouple months.

im a seventeen year old kid looking for a job and i dont have the money to finish my LUV, it will take years for me to get it like i want it. it is sitting in the grass right now and i think it has a blown head gasket or a goofed up carb. im not sure and i really dont want to pull the head. but anyone in atl that would like to meet somewhere just PM me and we will try to set up a time and place. its good to finally meet some people in the atl area with luvs. i was thinking that i was the only one for a while.....

If you live in powder springs, we live right behind you in Austell. We have three luvs - two are in pieces right now (79 4x4) and mine is parked until I can get my 350 in it (79 2wd long bed). But, we have also been hit by the Jeep and Toyota bug so we're working on those two - two jeeps and one Toy. Hopefully we won't get hit with any more bugs for awhile Anyway, we have had good luck with pull a part in Norcross as well. Ebay has been a good source for parts as well. We also have a friend who has a scrap yard and we'll get a call anytime a luv comes in. Will try to remember you and let you know when and if one comes in. My Luv came from the scrap yard. I know of someone who has a motor for sale but don't know how much he wants. Let me know if you want me to check and I will. We've got a bunch of parts laying so send me a pm and let me know what you need. Maybe we'll see you on the road one day. 4x4 has 6' lift and orange - mine (2wd long bed) is white front clip with cowl hood and rest is blue.

thanks for the info. my LUV is either a 76 or78 with a stepside bed from a silverado(narrowed of course) with teardrop tail lights. it runs like crap right now and i am looking for a carb. that will fit mine because my weber is just a piece of crap. if you come across a carb. just send me a pm and let me know where and how much. thanks in advance.

****Not meaning to bust in here amongst yall Georgians, but sounds like LUV parts are kinda scarce back that way...I have nearly ANYTHING (many times over) that you could want or need for chevy Luv parts

over 50 trucks in stock, only a few have been completely stripped and are on shelves ,over 30,000 LUV parts sittin on shelves waiting for new homes.
call anytime tween 9am an 7pm TEXAS time.....thanks****Duane****

PS....also I myself make a run to Alabama (which is actually my home state) each August, so anything big thats needed.....if it can be scheduled around that time I dont even charge for shipping....

i am thankful for everyones help. right now i am looking for a job so that i can get the money to get my luv finished and on the road. i am going to work on it today and hopefully get some pics up here for you all to see.

I would like to see a picture of that, that is pretty unique.
