Here's My Truck
I finally got my truck! It took me 3 hours to replace a wheel cylinder, but I drove it the 150 or so miles home. Here are some pics, tell me what ya'll think.

I have the fenders for this truck. They were removed the day the truck was bought back in 1970. They have been stored in a barn since then. Underneath the dust they are BRAND NEW. That is the first thing that is gonna change is putting the fenders back on!

That is a pretty good score!

Looks good ,great getting the fenders in mint condition .When I bough my Custom Camper it had a 10 " cabover on it ,and the old guy said the tailgate was in the rafters so we get it down all wrapped in a blanket ,I'm thinking Cherry ? not so had a bow and some dings
You lucked out. Good Luck

Wow, that's a good lookin' truck. I wish I could find one that clean. All I ever seem to find is this worn out rusted and beat up stuff that's been a farm truck all of it's life. Congrats

I like the boxes, gives it character. I'd keep it like it is, and put some custom rims on it......and maybe airbag suspension.
