[Howell1988]

So my dad bought me for Father's Day a 65 long bed half ton Chevy for 500 bucks it starts and runs as the three on the tree and a 250 cubic inch straight 6. It's a two owner truck all original no Bondo and has been sitting for 5 years I went and put some new gas in it fired right up lots of popping to be expected but ran like a champ for a little while couldn't get it to take off figures the carburetor has issues so it won't keep her running today I just found out the pumping the hell out of the brakes and putting new fluid in it was all she needed to get the brakes going again of course there's going to have to be some upgrades but for now it's good to go to get moving around to get started on the body work.
I'll post more later on this weekend it's great to be back!!!!
