 Location: Union City, 
                            TN              USA
 Notes: We bought the truck for $900 with a V8 already in it.  We then took the motor out. We built a new 355 with 30 over flattops, 292/501 Comp Cams, 461 heads with 202/160, Z28 valve springs, Team G intake, Hooker Headers, 750 Edelbrock, 410 gears, Turbo 350, a 4500 stall and 26/10 Mickey Thompson's.  In all, we have only $800 in motor. The truck runs very good for what we have in it. It's best run is a 6.90 @ 98 mph.  It pulls 1.45 sixty foots. WITH NO NOS. People at our track can't believe that.

 Notes: Restored 78 Luv. Lowered, Outlaw Rims, Midinght metalic blue with purple flames and dark tinted widows. Cromed cal-duct vent, hood hinges, raditaor panel, battery holder, and the hood-latch all cromed. sprayed tuff bed-liner black. 82 supera bucket seats. I'm working on tring to put the straight 6 from the supera into the Luv but not sure it will fit. I'm not into cutting the fire wall out. Suggestion are welcome. I'm planning on tubbing it out and putting neon green ground effects. I've been piecing this little beast together for the 3 years and I'm putting the final touches on it now. Feed back is welcome, Thanks!

 Notes: My dad bought it in 76 it was yellow with orange stripes and dual side pipes. It came with a matching Chinook camper.After the 4 cylinder died it was powered by a 65 327 and power glide with a ford 8 inch rear. it had a 350 th400 combo for a couple of years. About 12 years ago he converted it to 4wheel drive with a toyota front axle and nissan transfer case.It currently has the 65 327 and a 3speed stick.I have it now and besides a couple of broken luv rear axles and a few u joints and a 4 speed it is still going strong . I plan on installing a ford 9 inch in the future and some traction bars to stop axle rap.I will post a picture in the near future.

 Notes:    80 Chev Luv 4x4. It's an awesome truck,  it only had 127,000 miles on it, every thing on it works, even the original am radio with the word LUV on it still works.  The only problem there's not many music stations left on the am band.  The paint is exceptional considering the age of the truck, with a few rust spots, hope to get it repaint in the original color next summer.  The only major problem I'll run into is the 4x4 decal and stripes.
