JHZR2, that's a good list for any new-to-me vehicle.

It's going to be a summer toy, so probably one oil change a year, so the synthetic oil is the way to go, just in case I need to start it in the winter. It is winterized, so I can plug it in.

It sounds as if I already have most of the tools I'll need.

I have to get an engine and transmission rebuilt and into my '94 crew cab this summer, so this will go on the back burner until fall. I have about three months before winter closes in again, and a lot of outside projects! This winter I'll get it into my shop for a weekend and change fluids, filters, belts, check and adjust valve timing, and so on. Then it will be ready to play next summer.
