67 SWB 6 cyl cruiser
I bought this truck off Ebay around November 06.
A nice clean old truck. It was offered by the original owners grandson, who I could tell was hated selling it. Pretty clean over all, the bed had just a little rust from snow not melting, and the rockers were gone. Came with new tires and chains which was nice since I drove it home in a snow storm, the only passenger car on the road, straight thru to Houston, 24 hours. We filled the bed with snow to give it traction. The snow lasted all the way to Dallas before it finally melted. Plans are to keep the 6 cyl, add a 3 spd manual over drive, drop it 5.5" in the front and 5-6" in the rear. Power disc brakes all around, and power steering. Shave the firewall, one piece windows, but keep it clean. I have the truck back from paint now, so this may seem kind of quick.
