Exactly. I have put less than 1K miles on it since I got it and hopefully I can use it much more often this coming year. It is a nice day only, run around for errands truck! The body and frame are in amazing condition and I really just want it to be close to like it was in 1968.

No drive to work anymore! Forced to work from home and looks like it will remain that way. I have to get a battery tender for my daily! LOL.

The ZL1 is for trips and that is the one I put the miles on. Wouldn't want to think about taking that all apart!

The 68 is simple and doable and time in the garage in the winter here is more like therapy than something that I HAVE to get done.

I have nothing against a crate engine except this truck has so much originality, I would like to keep it that way if at all possible.
