My 1970 swb stepside

So i met my now exwife 12 years ago and started trying to buy it from her dad but he would never sell it because he had bought it brand new. But after 12 long years and a divorce they called me and said if you still want its yours, they gave it to me. Funny how it worked out.

Cool truck, looks like she's had a few different paint jobs. What are your plans for it?
