Re: New Addition to the Fleet
Nice buy! Any ideas what you're going to do with it? Paint looks like it just needs some wax!

Re: New Addition to the Fleet
Thanks guys. No idea what i'm going to do with it. Its geared very low, so 50mph is just comfortable for it. So i can't really drive it too far. It has the 5 and 10 bolt wheels , so no wheel options for it. However...its just such a cool old truck in great shape...I had to have it! I thought maybe I'd just clean it up, fix whatever was broken put the chrome front bumper and chrome grill trim on it and just drive it.
