The Longhorn I purchased from 409Biscayne arrived from Spokane today! I would like to go on record as saying buy with confidence from this gentleman. It is getting to be rare when someone tells the truth about what they are selling , but the truck is as described and I am thrilled! Now the fun begins as we begin the restoration of a C30 CST Longhorn!

bad_turbo · 02-21-2007, 11:05 AM

that truck looks good in brown. Nice project to start with

**Yukon Jack** · 02-21-2007, 11:34 AM

Will be a cool restoration. How deep are you going to take he restoration. Will it be a true restoration or will you be making modifications also?

Skip Greaney · 02-21-2007, 11:39 AM

As original as possible..within the limits of being able to find parts...truck runs fine just needs body and paint work and interior restoration

409biscayne · 02-21-2007, 12:36 PM

The Longhorn is a Snowbird , lol . Where would you want to retire , Spokane or Florida ? Here's a pic of the truck the week it left here .
I'm glad you're happy with it , you were excellent to do business with . Keep us posted on the progress.
Later ...................................... 409

Those deep rear wheels look good with the small stock hub caps...would look good with those all around!!!

Skip Greaney · 02-21-2007, 12:58 PM

Pictures were taken at 8:30 this morning, notice the dew on the windows. Temp now is 74 degrees with nice blue sky!

70rs/ss · 02-21-2007, 01:42 PM

Can I just say, you suck without offending you?!! J/K it is like single or teens here!! Nice longhorn, if I was looking for a "truck" that'd be it, but I am into the car-truck phase, low and fast!!

My mom always said if you can't say anything nice to the poor saps freezing their butts in the frozen north...

I am going put a reminder in my calendar to bring this thread back about August 18th or so, when its 78 degrees here and humidity is 10%!

Great truck, I also dig the wide stock wheel setup!

Who did you use for a shipper and were you pleased. Pm me your # if you don't mind.

GREASEMONKEY72 · 02-21-2007, 08:35 PM

**Palf70Step** · 02-21-2007, 08:59 PM
