OK Guys, here it is. After 4 years, I've finally got it done. It was a lot of work, but I really enjoyed it.

Basically stock. Original (rebuilt) 250 I-6 engine with original 3-on-the-tree tranny and .373 rearend. Non-power steering and non-power front disc brakes. Runs and drives great. Rebuilt stock suspension with original rear overload leafs. Wheels are from 1990 SS454. Color is 1968 Mopar Sunfire Yellow. I bought the truck from the original owner in South Carolina. Not much rust, except for rockers and floor pans. I did all the body work and painted it myself. Learned to weld in the process. I painted it disassembled, and then re-assembled everything. I also painted the entire interior, so even though the color is non-stock, everything matches. Had to replace bedside and front fender on right side, due to an old sideswipe and bondo experience. The truck was being used as a twice-a-year trash hauler when I found it sitting in a field. It had been painted (poorly) at least three times, and looked pretty rough. I'll try and put up an interior shot also.

Looks real good. Love the look of the SS Chrome slots

seacrow 07-21-2003 08:45 PM

SCORE one for the stock guys. I absolutely love this truck. Great job. I've never seen one restored like this. NO gauges, 6 cyl. three on the tree. I love it!

Randy70C-10 07-21-2003 09:19 PM

Looks awsome!! Question, I noticed that you painted the top of your dash yellow as well (reflection in the windshield) Does it bother you when you're driving?

70c10 07-21-2003 10:05 PM

Very nice truck!!!

Tx Firefighter 07-21-2003 10:23 PM

That's a super little truck!!!!!!!!

Bravo for resisting the temptation to change out the 6 cyl 3 spd drivetrain. I'm doing the same with mine, even keeping the no guages dash like you did.

weasel29gm 07-21-2003 11:07 PM

Great job, looks great!!!!!!!!

toms68cst 07-21-2003 11:10 PM
