Turbo 475 3 speed auto trans. 4 wheel discs Hydroboost brakes on 19.5 tires. New shocks, changed the oil and trans fluid. I'm gonna add a giant trans cooler. Bought a new custom made radiator. It is going to get some headers from Hooker, I bought two sets and will probably go with the ceramic coating set.
Generator runs flawless. Fuel tanks hold 130 gallons of gas. Means the generator will run about 130 hours. Or 1000 mile range. Changed all the interior lights to LED bulbs. I am going to add a solar panel or two and some deep cell batteries. Brand new spare distributor, and I have a few spare alternators. If anything happens to the house, I can still stay here. I have a 250 gallon propane tank I own, with a wet leg.
I think when I am done, I will have about 8 grand into it. Most of the modifications were bought from ebay. The hardest part will be designing and installing the small wood stove. All I need now is to buy some waterfront property in the mountains to bug out to...

Now THAT is a grand thing. I can't believe how low the mileage is!
