The plan is just a putt around driver. My step dad bought this truck for my son and thinks it needs to be a daily driver. With a 223 and a 5.14 rear gear ratio, it is NOT suitable for a 16 yr old kid. He'll blow the damn motor up in a heartbeat! ! It is more of a bonding deal with my son and I. I am teaching him how to work on and disassemble/reassemble of machinery. He is really enjoying it. I am planning on getting quite a bit done this winter towards fixing it up. It runs and drives now, but needs a ***** ton of work to make it "road worthy". Just taking it a little at a time. Thanks for all of the words of encouragement.
