From turbo four banger to 454 big block...

Well, after making the decision to buy a 1997 Eclipse GST, I got a little bored and started to look into alternatives. I wanted to sell it to get a down payment on a good car, but then I was approached with an interesting trade. It's a 1985 GMC C1500. Has a 454 crate motor bored out 60, Edelbrock filter and carb, JEGS upper intake, chrome valve covers, long tube headers, dual cherry bomb exhaust, a turbo 400 transmission with a shift kit, and a few perks like tinted electric windows, split window, A/C and heat, and a generally nice interior. The body's straight as well.

Needless to say, I took the trade. Lol definitely happy to be back in a V8.

EDIT: Here are the pictures now that Imgur finally uploaded them.
