    I saw a truck from that era at my docs office once and never saw it again. It was satin black, had a tube grill, roll pans front & rear, peep mirrors & wide whites on orange steelies.

    are fuel prices gonna kill peoples cruising and car show participation this year?

    Thats a very good point. Recycling a bag of aluminum cans will make up that difference

    '82 Chevy S-10

    I had two of those little luvs. Great trucks, especialy when the thing dies when the alternator takes a dump. I pushed it to pop the clutch to start it for a couple days. Nice and light

    Did something today I haven't done in literally decades! Changed points!

    Brings back memories from my childhood of my dad cussing out the instector every year after his IH pickup failed inspection. He would change points and go back the next weekend and pass. Not sure why and what changing points did. Maybe emission?

    Bored with car shows.

    I havent had the oppertunity to be in a show for quite awhile but when I used to I started getting bored of just sitting around. I liked the shows that had things to do. Games, runs, bands. I liked cruise ins alot because you parked, ate, talked a bit and split.
