my twins.....
I took some pics of my twins (fraternal, not identical
 ). They are both 64's. The 4x4 is the one I got this spring, had pics of that one on here earlier. The "new" 64 I bought about a month ago. It has a 350 and a 700R4 in it. I only paid 250 bucks for it and drove it 120 miles home. Every light works as does the radio, heater, and gauges. I figure it was a pretty good deal. The unusual part of it was the rear springs. The P.O. had put a second set of hd coil springs inside the original hd springs . I now know that I have a good dentist, because all my fillings stayed in during the drive home . I have since replaced the rearend in it with another one I had laying around because the original one had a whine in it and a bit of a clunk. I also changed the springs over to half ton springs.

Re: my twins.....
Very nice.....I thought I had found a great deal on my 66 whem I bought it - and I had to tow mine home! I noticed your steering column in your interior pic - it looks to have P R N D 2 L on it. Any idea as to what year/model vehicle it came out of? Again - very nice!

Re: my twins.....
I'm not sure about the column, but I think its out of a 69-72. It works great, but of course I can't get to first with it being a four speed. I read somewhere how to modify the column to work, but for me its not worth the hassle. Also, I would recommend those of you who have a 3/4 ton and aren't going to haul huge loads with it to convert to half ton springs. It rides like a caddy now.

Re: my twins.....
Just to clarify, I think the column is out of a 69-72 chev/gmc. It had a gmc wheel on it when I got it, but my chev wheel was better so I changed it over.
