71 Fleetside Score!
Okay I bought another truck but this was a major score. Pictures will come at lunch on Wednesday. Too dark tonight!
Frame is done with complete air ride system. 20 inch wheels and new tires. Cab sucks but I have a nice one from my truck. Late model seat. Lots of parts for $2000.00. No rust at all. I have to paint the frame. The guy he bought the truck from owns Hot Rod Ranch here in my small town... Guy is trying to get his Nova painted so he just wanted it gone... Now I have to sit down and sell parts I do not need.... This purchase really put me ahead and the frame work and welding is top quality work... I called the previous owner and told me he put lots of hours in the truck but as a owner of a shop he had several other projects going so he just drove the truck daily. The current owner was taking it apart for paint and just realized he could not do two projects at the same time... http://whittz.com/v-web/gallery/71Fleetside

Re: 71 Fleetside Score!
Nice score and ...Now that you will have parts to sell it give you a reason to go from pink to Blue so you can sell part here to a targeted fan base.
