Default Another TN neewbie

Hey, I've been lurking a while, now I've joined. I have a '95 Buick Roadmaster with the magnificent LT1. Grampa's old heap blows away those ricers. My son has just about intimidated all the ricers in the area, though.
I'm also considering swapping my '95 ECLB 5-spd SBC for an '00 ECSB 4x4 with the awesome LS1. (5.3) Hard to part with my '95, though. I picked it up as a one-owner from right here in E.TN, and it's a jewel. But, the arthritis in my left leg makes it hard to mash down that very stiff clutch pedal some days. I work for the dealer, so a deal's no problem. Should I take the plunge?

Well, the Buick's kind of ratty. I rescued it from some d*** Yankee in Chicago about 2 years ago, and it's shot full of rust. I also would have to have my son work the pictures, and I don't have the '00 truck, yet. MAYBE. Still not decided. Also, no mods to the Buick. (My wife won't even let me let the LT1 BREATHE!)
