My Truck
This is Jebb. I bought him on Ebay a couple years ago. I was looking for this exact truck for a long time before I found him. I wanted a 1978 just like my Dad had when I was a kid. I used to go with him everyday on a paper route he added on to his list of jobs to support us when we first moved to Arizona. I had to stop going when I started school but those are some of my happiest young memories. The truck is exactly the same with the exception of the long bed, two tone option (that is the only thing I wanted and didn't get) and the 4 speed (his was a T-350). The 4 speed I wanted because it makes it feel like an old truck and the short box was a must. Everything else is identical including the interior. It was a 2 owner truck that spent all it's previous days in the salt free Sacramento area. The weather must be very mild because you are looking at original paint. It has not been restored, I did a major engine overhaul and a few small things and I am just as happy as could be with it. The only things I have really changed is the aftermarket stereo and wheels which are both back to stock now. I did do some upgrading under the hood when I did the motor to but nothing radical. I do plan to lower him and put a secret audio system in. What do you guys think?
