For 3 days of their hospitality, and some fantastic meals.
I had asked around for a lead on an exceptional GMC to buy. I wanted to get one for our Daughter. She's a doctor in the Twin Citys of Minnesota. It had to be very dependable. So, price wasn't an issue. Emery called with a prospect. The owner had bought it new in 1976. In Southern Calif. Always stored inside. Had used it a lot. And kept it extremely well maintained. Inside, and out. As close to perfection as you can get. ( Well not quit. The plate lite at the rear was burned out.) Engine, trans, and FD were all rebuilt about 16,000 moles ago. An extra rebuilt 455, and trans were included. Both still crated up. The front suspension was all from Dave Linzi. Even Daves latest rear disc brakes. Then even all the rest of Dave's brake components. All new SS exhaust system. Aluminum radiator. GM/Howell EFI. Engine fire system. Mac dash. All appliances are fairly new. A trolly system for engine swapes. Real nice GEO Tracker. With a Blue OX tow bar. With braking system. Crates of new parts. H
e called his price. Done deal. Then it was found that the Michaline tires were dated. So, he said that he'd put a new set of Michelins on. While the tires where being installed. He had the engine oil, and antifreezes change. While on his way home. He topped off all 3 gas tanks of the GMC/Tracker. Then the LP.
The 800-mile trip home was perfect. This GMC was a real part of the PO's family. This was an emotional event for them. They will be kept up on the GMC's travels.
So. Many thanks to Emery, and Michelle for this memorable event.
