Notes: 79 Chevy LUV 4x4, my first truck bought it for $500 at a yard sale and trailered it home soon to fix it up to use it at a daily driver/wheeler. Has a/c which is rare in luv's, and it came with new tires and wheels when I bought it so I basicly paid for the wheels and tires when I bought it. Swaped the motor on it becuase it was burning oil and put an engine out of another 79 luv with a Weber carb. |

Notes: I recieved my pristine 1980 LUV Sport when my grandfather passed away a year ago. Growing up, I loved to ride in Grandpa's "Little Red Truck" and was ecstatic when, on my 16th birthday, my grandma handed me the keys and said "go have fun". I have been having fun in this LUV ever since. |
