Notes: My project is a v8 78 luv with th350 sb350 and ford 9 inch. Its a project I have awsome parts for it like a new front bumper etc. I cant wait to finish it. I have rim's also but what makes my truck look bad is that terrible body. here in hawaii its easy to get rust with the salt in the air so my Luv is pretty rusty. thats pretty much it if anyone wants to see my truck please let me knoe I'd love to share pics and maybe you can show me pics of your truck too. |

Location: Olalla,

Forum Name: Mighty LUV
Notes: Bought it from an older couple for 1k; blew out the rear main seal soon after (my apologies to the morning commuters in Fife). Picked up a replacement 1.8 (I do LUV the 4-bangers, gutless though they are), needing to rebuild the carb, maybe a cam, but until then I'll just be diggin'it. As the King once sang, "I'm just a hunka-hunka burnin' LUV (WHOOAAAAH)!!"
P.S. Checked out the "LUV's Around The World" page; think I'll start calling mine a "ute" (nyuk nyuk). |

Notes: Just a regular 4-banger not much to say. it'll turn the tires great. no one at school thinks its a 4-cylinder and there is a reason for that too, but i cant say. took alot of work and a good bit of money. i bought it for $500. already spent about 1700 on it in about 4 months but it still needs alot.

Notes: My truck is not running at the moment. It needs a new fuel pump relay and a few other things that I can't remember right off hand.
Other than that it looks great, just a few rust spots here and there. If anyone knows where I can get fenders and a fuel pump relay please email me about them. Thanks. |

Notes: It still has it's original engine which is being worked on at this time. I have a 79 Trans Am with a 400/400 combo in it that I am considering transplanting, 'cause the TA is in bad cosmetic shape. The remainder of the truck is being done as a prostreet style truck at the moment. I will continue to load pictures as the project goes on. |
