We've got rodents out here in Arizona that like to feast on automotive wiring too. I used to work at an auto electric shop and probably repaired a hundred rodent damaged wiring harnesses over the years. Most of our customers auto-policy/Comprehensive insurance ended up paying for the repairs.

175,000 miles on the engine and i figured out its not the origional radiator. lol the origonal is bigger then the on in there now thats why the farmer i got it from used a no smoking sign to hold the radiator on ahaha.

wow thats some good mileage from a truck in the 70's, my 1999 dodge ram 1500 pushing 150k right now lol, I say its time for a rebuild and a new thread for me

 

[Kaptain Krunch]

Rebuild at 150k?goes to show they dont make em like they used to.

My boss has a 2000 GMC Sierra with a 5.3 motor, it's got over 350,000 miles and still going strong, original trans too. The only major repairs so far were replacing the bearing in the differential and an AC compressor,

 

[BriggsTwins]

older gmcs are really reliable.

 

[freakboy]

Anything old is reliable.

 

[BriggsTwins]

Last year mice got into our brand new camper and decided to chew some wires, But nothing else in the camper was chewed. Cost almost $300 in repairs, Little buggers!

Whats the diference between a GMC and a Chevy truck? (GMC's use lock washers and have an ugly grill...

Whats the diference between a BMW and a porcupine? (porcupines have their pricks on the outside)

[BriggsTwins]

im kinda surprised no one has mentioned pontiac....

so how is the truck freak?

 

[freakboy]

Its good just ran it twice today im trying to keep it running and go through all the crappy *** gas, i think im going to sea foam the engine one of these days. And if it wasnt raining i would have the fender off and the dent knocked out of it. i tryed one of them pull hammer things that you drill a hole and pull and it has a weight on it but the fenders to thick of steel to pop the dent out.

 

[BriggsTwins]

nice, im sure a foaming would make her happy
