Re: Is this a Targetmaster?

Thanks for the kind words. I picked it up in Arkansas July 2006 from a local dealer who got it from the original owner's grandson. I've pretty much had it in storage since then (which kills me). After I buy a house and get some more garage space, I plan on spending more time with it. The odometer reads 46,xxx. Don't know if it's rolled over once or twice, but it is in very good shape so maybe it is a low-mileage truck. Either way, it's a blast to drive. That's the most important part. Can't wait to drive it more. It has a 350/350 combo that runs like a top. It stops great. The interior is spot on. Everything works really well. There are a few cosmetic spots, but overall it is a solid truck. I just plan on keeping it simple and driveable for now. I don't want to have something I'm afraid to drive around, what's the fun in that?? I don't want to shorten the bed (I like longbeds), or slam it, or put bags and 24's on it. There's nothing wrong with any of those, just not for me.

With money and time permitting (aren't those the main factors in everything?), I'd like to add a full exhaust system, wheels/tires, and way in the future rebuild the engine and add an overdrive tranny. For now I'll keep it simple and hopefully get more time to enjoy it this year-that's the main thing. Here's some more pictures. Thanks!
