My son Jesse bought his first 4x4 this week :headbanger: I think its a 82 Chevy LUV????

Long story short :rules: He calls me the day he buys it and says it wont start. I find him on Paskenta RD south of the pavement with a blowen ignition fuse. I said "Were you driving through the water fast?" Yeah, the second time. He says " I dont even know if the 4wd works" I say "Lets Go Find Out" The real KEWL thing is. Untill that day he had never drivin a stick Heres a few Pics

very cool. my 1st 4x4 was a 79 luv! that thing was a little mountain goat! I drove it all over the place. I remember it was a great snow rig being so light and all. Im sure he'll have some good times with his luv.

I always thought one of those would be pretty neat with a toyota axle up front and one of the diesel engines.

Kewl, I remember a Chevy Luv sometime in my childhood. Congrats on your son's first 4x4

WOO WOO WOOO :censored: :censored:

That truck belonged to my neighbor. He died a few weeks ago. I STRONGLY advise going through that thing with a fine tooth comb. Being that I have lived in the hood for 3 years and only ever say it run right before they sold it. I would be VARY leary!!! CHANGE ALL THE FLUIDS!! at the vary least!! I would say that it had sat in one place for at least 5 years.

I was going to make a low ball offer for it to build for tough trucks. Then I saw that it was gone. I would be willing to give a a look over if he wants to bring it by.. on a day when it's not rainning that is.

Is the bed still cocked to one side. It sat with the bed cocked to one side for so may years and the pics look like it still is.

the engines in those things were made by isuzu GOOD LUCK

That's a good start.

Put a 350 sb in it, cheby 3/4 ton axles, cut the fenders out and run 35's! Of course, if it's a DD and has to smog, he's stuck w/ it as is.

So when are we going to see it on it's first trail run?

Thanx Onk for the heads up

I dont think its the bed thats crooked. its the cab on the drivers side is loose and beats againt the bed. I didnt have time to look at it too close but its deffinatly messed up

sweet beater rig... I've never been a fan of the luvs, but i agree a diesel and yota axle would be rad. id hack it to #### till people asked what's that? is it a toyota? lol good luck man. I heard the isuzu engines actually do very well, my buddy has one at like 200k.
