Brought new by my granddad for my moms and pops back in 1985, they were the only owners until it was passed down to me prbly around 1999. Wasn't really feeling the car but as time went on and the offers to buy it became more and more, i decided to go ahead and get and see what i was working wit! Round 2002 right after I graduated High School, pops put it in the shop (Goodyear) and told them to fix whatever was wrong and make it drive able. Being my 1st car and me not being "mechanically inclined" i just hop'd in from there and whatever problems occurred i'd faced them then.
First thing I did was have an Viper alarm with remote start installed, had new speakers put in dash and back window and i rolled like that for a min. So after have the car for a few years and getting minor things fixed at a time like the headliner which had completely disintegrated after sitting in the baking sun for years, the motor had pretty much reached it's limit
So after that motor blew I purchsed a new engine and had it installed by the worst engine shop in Arkansas (didn't knw that at the time) for them to install the same exact thing that i had in there in the beginning (4.3L 262 cid V6 with Fuel Injection). it took them 6 months and $2,600 bucks!
