Thanks for the comments....
About the price. Originally the owner was asking $7,500. He then dropped the price to $6,990 on his web link. Me and wife dropped him down to $6,150. Pretty good haggling I'd say. In my opinion, I got a great deal. I had looked at a few trucks before this, and the sellers were to dang proud of them. One short bed with gutted interior, rotted wood bed floor, nasty engine compartment (stock 350), decent paint, was asking $5,000 Firm. Here's a picture of a pickup that was forsale in South Texas (Edinburg). I believe it was a 72. I had a relative take a pic and send it to me. Had the original 396, A/C, etc. Original clean interior. Only thing was the bed was rotted, due to someone installing a bedline (water). He was asking $2,500. I think with $2,000 he'd sell it. This was about 1 1/2 months a go, so I doubt if he still has it. nice truck thou...

HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
Exactly what I said when I got the truck. Well, turns out the previous owner when he added the A/C, and new bracket for Altenator, he had no room for the 14" x 3" filter it had, so he replaced it with this Lawnmower filter... He had clearance problems with the radiator hose and the fuel line (from new carb, old was holley). Any way, i went out to Pep-Boys and found a 1 1/2" spacer and added the Edelbrock filter back on last night. Previous owner loved classic trucks , but was not to mechanically inclined. I should have plenty of air now.... New filter is like this.... |

Welcome from Aggieland! (I'm originally from your neck of the woods.) You have a very nice pickup. Silver '67s give me goosebumps! Sounds like a heckuva deal!
