The most expensive thing I did was put four new tires on it. I also replaced the plugs and cables and a few other things. From purchase price to repairs I think I had about 1500 invested and it ran like a top. If I ever find one like it again for a good deal I will buy it.
Was that an M motor in that? That was a really popular truck series in the farming community, but they were notorious for dropping the valves at 40K like clockwork. Even the folks in town that had them lost their valves at that timeframe, so it was definitley not use related.
