When I left Texas I had an 87 Blazer that was getting almost rusted
out. I had an old guy build an engine for me and put it in the truck a
few years before. I pulled the engine and tranny and gave the hulk to a
guy. Not sure what I would ever do with it but the engine was somewhat
pricey and ran well, so figured at some point it would come in handy for
something, like when I'm 85 and need another project.
Looking back on it, I should have kept the truck and brought it here to
SC as there is no inspection, emissions, or anything else to comply
with. I could have done some welding on the body and put a carb or new
EFI on the engine (it had the original TBFI set up which was not
particularly good) to get more power and better running, and have the
truck, but I guess I really did not need it for anything other than a
project, of which I have plenty. I did like that truck though, it was
very agricultural and the 4WD would crawl up the side of the house.

Wait, what? Did you lose a car? Forgive me if I'm way behind.
Best,
