work truck in NC

[camjck89]

hey my name is Cam form North Carolina and ive found this 71 or 72 not sure truck. im not planning a full restore but id like to get the mechanics in running order and get it aesthetically looking a little better than it is im trying to make a list and as far i have that when i go pick it up i need to check if not change the breaks and break lines i need to find some tires for this beast and go over the engines fluids and sounds. one big thing is ive never had a full size truck ive done a lot to my toyota pickup but not to one of these bad boys. I am a welder by trade and thats what im doing 4 days out of the week so patch panels and what not are not an issue. do you guys have any ideas about what i can do that will make this a sweeter ride with out makin this truck out of comission for my work truck. oh yea i bought it for 100$and its tailgate is the worst rust ive seen on it.Attachment 559083
