Bought this truck to supplement the Firebird's lack of snow handling capabilities. Ended up putting a water pump, serpentine, and new exhaust system in it to keep it legal. Had a little fun making a cherry-bombed dual exhaust out of it... that was a tough sounding system. Loads of power. When I hauled the toys I could barely remember they were behind us. That was a nice and heavy work horse. I highly recommend one if you are going to do any hauling.
