New member. Bought this 82 2wd from a guy down the block a few months ago who was letting it go to seed. Plan on fixing it up, using it to haul motorcycles to rallies, and then give it to my grandson (who is three, so I will have lots of time to get her looking good). My mechanical aptitude is mostly limited to motorcycles, but these seem pretty simple to work on.

It has a 350 crate motor, Edelbrock 600 cfm 4 bbl, Headman headers, sm465 with bad synchros and a worn input shaft bearing, and Mickey Thompson 33X 12.5 15 tires (which will be replaced shortly with 235/75 R 15 Goodyear Wranglers.) There is a very mild lift kit installed which I will eventually remove.

My wife hates it, the neighbors laugh at it, and I love to drive it!
