OBTW, something doesn't look right with the rear wheels.

I suspect frame rot.

"It must be true, I read it on the internet"

To this generation, anything that is a big V8 has gotta be 500HP. Come 'on, it's 455 cubic inches.

The conversation goes like this... your 4.6L makes 300 HP, ergo that 7.5L beast has to be an easy 500.

If it were just that easy.....

There is also one of these airport shuttle GMC's for sale up in Allenton
Wisconsin, I looked at it before I purchased ours. It needed mega work and
they were asking $10k for it.

I'd say that a "tail-gater" would also be an appropriate use!

Didn't notice that until you pointed it out.
Strange that the right rears are tilted in.
