I stumbled upon this site via google. Glad I found it.

I sold my old truck and never forgave myself for it. I recently traded a plow for this 81 GMC K1500. Its got a 355/th350/?205?

Runs like crap, it is running super, super rich lol. Kid said we had a Holly 650dp on it and it didn't run right so we put this 750dp Holly on it. Lol you can't hardly stand behind it without your eyes burning.

Its got plenty of problems, and will be a major project, but I enjoy this stuff so...:party36:

I kinda hate to tell you about Buds... guy is ass to the fullest of the term.

He will be nice one day, tell you a price, wait for you to come in and treat you like an idiot and jack up the price.

He wanted $380 for a front bumper with the guards on it that was a lil rusty. :whymewhyme:

The major wheeling area is now gone, but it used to be out by Belding off of Berridge Rd. The railroad got torn out and a private buyer took over the property. Closed it all off.

Oh, he's a dick for sure, but there's decent stuff to be had out there. One trick I've found is to never let them know what I really want lol.

That sucks, I keep hearing theres something out by Long Lake, but I just keep finding normal dirt roads lol. Which to some people is wheeling I guess.

I kinda gave up and just started heading to Bundy Hill, where they have extraction onsite and won't sue me lol. Around Muskegon, we have ton's of areas, I guess we were lucky.
