    If its blown I don't think won't make it 3 miles if not less your best bet is tow that sucker! Though the price is awesome!

          Durnit, I was tryin to avoid the tow problems, maybe there's a shop within roll distance, Would I have to have the head resurfaced to make it to a shop? First Festy and I be hopin' it works out well.

            Yeah I have a dolly to throw the front wheels on. I want to buy it but i'll let you have first dibs since it'll be your first festy Im jsut that nice of a guy. I was going to buy it then fix it up and give it to my dad for when he gets a new job, his truck only gets 10mpg and I thought it was a good start to paying him back.

                  It was driven down to greenlake, the guy thought it was a thermostat and was pulling over and letting it cool the whole way, also he has lost the title, he says it's in his name . It has sat for a while with the gasket issue, goin' to check it out tomorrow, gonna run the VIN, fingers crossed he finds the title cuz it takes 8-10 weeks to get one reissued.

                    UPDATE: Not gonna get it, Devon it's all yours. He does not have any papers, no thermostat idle is rough, slight oil leak, front lights are in sore shape, I wasn't gettin' good vibes, but you are better with festy's than I, good candidate for a swap, no rust.
