ive had the 71 for close to ten years (i think) and we built it starting with just a frame we scrounged up. everything is new drive train wise. springs brake lines engine tranny stainless bolts holding it all together..and on and on. both my sons learned to drive in that truck and both learned driving a clutch at the same time lol that was fun. anyway i want it to stay in family forever and its pretty much just sitting. so i (sold)gave it to my younger son (21) it still needs to have seat upholstered and box painted.
i told him if he ever decides he needs money more than the truck ill give him whatever cash hes put into it and take it back.
thanks for everyones comments im liking the idea of the heavy half. im thinking my honey is going to want me to haul dirt and bark at times for her gardening addiction.
