[66skylarkpost]

i bought this and the front clip ( which except for grille damage , and surface rust on the radiator support and fenderwells ) from a buddy of mine . i took it all apart from a 1970 custom camper 30 , i mean camper . some 30 somehting feet long and over the cab deal .it was a 350 -400 turbo powered . anyways i got the cab , front clip with shroud , 4 core radiator (which is in my stepside right now ) , a/c stuff , including compressor brackest and pulleys . everything but motor trans and chassis ... for ... i think $ 500 . that was about 4-5 years ago .the camper was said to been inside a barn for years , then sat behind it for its last few . its purty at 35,804 miles . its been in my buddy to the souths shop/barn . i have been wanting to strip it and repaint for my stepside , but its only original once . once you do all that work , should you stop driving them ? i have to do some sheetmetal work on the roof because it has the cab clearance lights . other that that , sand , sand and paint . i will either bed liner or por the underside . its rainy today , i got back late last night and had to work late today , but i had to get a couple pics to share . hell , i hadnt seen it since i put in that barn .
