70 build(some assembly required)

[jhaymon]

well i make jokes about my current bane of existence, but somebody really did cut the grass and find it. this truck was barn find and my ex-wifes uncle started the restoration(it sat in his yard for 6 years and was restored to iron ore). then his bother(my ex father-in-law) got it and took it apart. before my divorce from miss white trash usa, he cleaned his yard and found the truck. my ex-uncle knew i wanted the engine(an olds 403) and offered to trade it to for 2 eclipse autocockers i had. so i got a truck(kinda).


i was just going to pull the engine and junk the truck but my deal for the trans-am that goes with the engine fell through. so now i stuck with 2 tones of American sheet-metal i cant give away.so i shove in a stowage(an old vacant house i owned)and put an ad in the local online classified for someone to haul it off. i get 10 calls from people wanting to sell me theirs and one guy who wants me to haul off a cab. ok i get the cab.opps.. my truck and trailer is in Dallas for fear the up and coming ex would try to take it. i have a little work truck, maybe it'll fit..


some blasting revealed a good find with only one rust spot


now to make room on the frame. for the new cab


and get rid of the old one


and it sat for 5 years.till i sold the property.


well after 5 years i still have the 2 ton beast and still dont have the trans-am i need for the engine so until i get distracted ill start building a truck. my ultimate goal is to spend $0.00. so far im doing good.
I'll have to find a camera to continue this
