Re: 85 auto - kelowna, bc - $9900 (!)

It's $7500 now. Sure looks rust free. Too bad it's an auto.

Re: Can 2WD Fuel pick up assembly work in 4WD?

It does bolt up to the 4WD tank. The 2WD pick up is too short to reach the bottom of the tank, and also, the external pipes are oriented in a totally different direction that can't be corrected by a simple bend. I guess, in a pinch, splatterdog's suggestion would work. Longer hoses could be added to...

Re: 1983 T4WD car plus massive parts

Have seven right now, 4 drive-able /insurable (two of them rust free imports and two winter cars) and 3 parts cars. Good luck with the sa...
