Re: My new truck

thank you all for the props. picture was from where it sat when i bought it but everything is for sale! lol. under the hood is a 355. has long tube headers with 3" flowmasters. mild cam, edelbrock intake and carb, hypertech ignition. also has raim air. motor is kinda worn. smokes a little at start up and valves rattle without the 93 octane. but it will still lay down the rubber and haul some serious butt. not to mention i had 2 tons in the bed last weak. it hauls like a frickin champ

the only plans i have are to get rid of the rust. cab is horrible and bed has one small hole. repaint the same design. rebuild the motor and the ever growing list of small stuff....lol

i paid $3000 for the truck
