Anyone buy back a truck you sold 10 years ago?

Since my thread keeps getting bumped, I’ll chime in with updates. Currently, I’m trying to get the timing dialed in. I thought I had the carb tuned correctly, but the MPG were off, and I had hard starting when hot, so I went back and started from scratch. That’s when I noticed the vac advance on the distributor moving when I throttled it up. The screw, holding it in place had come out allowing it to move. I went ahead and bought a new distributor and installed it, but now I’m trying to get the timing right. I’ll take it out in the morning for a test run and tweak it after I see how it runs under different loads. I still want to do an engine swap and I keep my eye on craigslist for a donor truck.

Cool Post ! Im in this group ! I had a red 93 4x4 4cyl. Last week I saw one (a v6 though). I made an offer and now its in the driveway. It cool ! Its my dogs ride. A lil scratched up in the right places but its mostly for the ranch anyways. But I have been driving it everywhere
If I get 50xxx miles out of it... Ill have it for 20 years. ITs getting a lot of love right now. Guess what .... also in San Antonio !
