The guy I dealt with had never heard of this site. Thanks for the offer, but I have all the parts I need and it should be on the road later today.

Yea, it's tweaked a couple degrees, but its ok. I'd buy another just for good luck if I could find the same deal again. The tubes are showing some corrosion, being 20 years old.

I have driven it around the home place. I need to finish installing the plastic part of the grille and slap on a bumper, but yes it is functional. I missed that inline six torque and the sound. :lol:
