That is a VERY good looking truck there.

19673, Back in the mid seventies I worked in Grundy & Hurley during the UMWA strikes in the coalfields. Spent alot of time in that area with other mechanics working on heavy equipment & state troopers patrolling the mine sites.
BTW, that is one nice looking truck! Gotta be the best looking vehicle in Southwest VA.

That is a great looking truck! I bet the new clear windshield makes you feel like driving a new truck. Mine isn't white around the edges but is scratched like someone drove through a bunch of trees and bushes.

I gotta agree with everyone on this truck. I love the looks of it. The contrast between the black paint, and the white grill and bumper looks fantastic. Looking forward to seeing what it looks like finished.
