[QUOTE="YakBasser, post: 1920220, member: 5379"] Okay, the deal IS, Ive got a chance to pick up an '89 Sub 2500 4x4 with the 6.2L Diesel for next to nothing. A friend of mine was driving it daily, and wrecked it, and now its just setting. Just needs some front-end sheet metal and radiator and bumper, which is NO problem, but the Diesel thing has me wondering. Been wanting an older one forever to play with and lift , just for an occasional driver and campin/huntin/fishin rig. Just Love these old things. I know the 6.2 is NO power house, but they put this Old Detroit in Tons of Vehicles and theres lotsa parts out there for them and the truck itself. Before I get totally ALL Excited about it, just wanted some input from Uguys. The cheap initial $$ has allready got me findin lift kits and All kindsa stuff for it for Cheap. Wud make a good SHTF truck too. Any thoughts or "Dont Do It's" ??? [/QUOTE]
