SO I BOUGHT A TRUCK OF A MAN, HE SWEARS IT ONLY HAS 35K MILES ON IT... LOOKS LIKE IT MAY BE TRUE BASED ON HOW CLEAN THE INTERIOR OF THE TRUCK IS. HE DID ALOT ALREADY ON THE TRUCK TO RESTORE IT BUT THEN LOST INTEREST AND LEFT THE HOOD AND FRONT FENDERS OFF, AND LEFT THE TRUCK OUTSIDE IN THE RAIN, AND PUT A PLASTIC BAG OVER THE CARB. THE PLASTIC BAG DETERIORATED, AND WATER GOT INSIDE THE ENGINE AND HAS RUSTED OUT MY CYLINDER WALLS.
I CALLED AN ENGINE REBUILDER WHO QUOTED ME 3K OR MORE TO REBUILD IT FOR ME... SEEMS KIND OF HIGH. MY QUESTION WOULD BE DOES ANYONE KNOW OF A REPUTABLE ENGINE REBUILDER NEAR PHEONIX, LAS VEGAS OR LAS ANGELES WHO COULD AT LEAST HONE MY CYLINDERS AND MAYBE INSTALL NEW PISTONS AND RINGS IF REQUIRED IN MY ENGINE JUST TO GET THE THING RUNNING DECENT FOR AROUND 1K? OR AM I DREAMING? I JUST THINK I SHOULD BE ABLE TO GET IT REBUILT FOR AROUND THAT... MAYBE IM DELUSIONAL?
