Re: finally drove my 76 after 2 years of work
That is one fine looking truck you have. I like the work many people do on their trucks, but I tend to like restorations best.

Re: finally drove my 76 after 2 years of work
Thanks guys
All started from blown head gasket or cracked head. Engine was overall filthy and worn so pulled it, and built a new one. We all know the rest of the story...clean and paint this, replace this....fix previous owners crap lol ![]() ![]()

Beautiful truck, now you got me wanting to put buckets and a console in again after just making up my mind to get my bench recovered.
