Notes: Found the Air Force/Army truck on Luvtruck.com. It has 6473.6 on the odometer, and being ex-military, I believe the mileage to be actual. It's getting a LT1/4L60E, and will be street driven, with an occasional pass or two at the strip. I've made some progress, and it's posted on my webpage.

Notes: M luv has a Webber Carb, Crane Cam Double Fire Electronic Ignition, Flowmaster, 32/11.5o' Brigestone Duellers. i take it out muddin all the time...i got it from some guy who wanted to give it away...i wasnt to sure about it but once i heard the it had four wheel drive i didnt hesitate to sign the title. when i first saw it i almost through up there was about two inches all the way along bedside on both sides. i was gonna screw around with a rig the had so much bondo on it the a metal detector wouldnt detect it so i tore the bed off and put a flatbed on it. after that i cranked the tortion bars, sprung over the rear end and put those 32's i mentioned above on it. with such a short wheel base, no weight on the back, and all the mods to the motor i can pull donuts on dry cement....its the funnest rig i have ever driven. by the way check out my website above, i only have $275.69 into it. i kept track so i could brag.

I hope to totally rebuild/restore the whole truck before he comes back home! It will be fun and when I get done I will drive it daily to work and also do some off roading for fun!

Notes: My name is Kevin Kramer and i am a proud PUP owner, yes i said pup, but i have had my pup since i was a freshman in highschool and have sence been fixin it up. when i got the truck it ran like shit, so i imediatly put a weber carb on it and it ran great, the i took all the emission related stuff off, including that stupid tube that runs along the side of the head, the smog pump and other related items. At this point it has about 25 more HP then stock and also gets better gas milage. I then put a roll bar in the back and that realy helped out the looks. This truck sure has my luv and all my friends luv my little truck because it goes everywere, no matter how far back in the woods the party is it always makes it with no problem. I will post pics when I ge a chance.

Notes: This is a 1979 4x4 that inherited from a friend. Unfortunately I need to drive this vehicle so my restoration project has sped up and I've had to make some uncomforatable short cuts but someday I'll be able to go back in time and do it right. For now here are before and after pics I've been taking throughtout the projects.

Notes: What a cool litttle 4WD, and mine may be one of the few with a transplanted 1.8 L diesel from an Isuzu Imark (4 sp). It's almost Caterpillar Yellow, and sure sounds like a small one. I'm running on homebrewed biodiesel, and am in the process of adding a second fuel tank (heated with engine coolant) so I can use waste vegetable oil. Also has Hijacker air shocks in the rear with a 4 inch body lift and 31" tires. It will crawl up most anything, and smells like french fries! Yes that is a beautiful blonde hockey-playing Barbie doll for the hood ornament, although it should be Ronald McDonald.
