"Lucky's" new home

Hi all, I have sold the Truck to a rather eccentric individual who's really into what we are all trying to accomplish here, AND he's a master welder who teaches at the mill where I work! He's also a gearhead and thinks he can make Lucky sing with some improvements. Hopefully I've convinced him to come here and tell us how the truck fares as he works on it.
Now I've got to start my new project... '96 Regal N/A V6 currently at 30.9 per tank, hypermiling, no mods.
