New Member, New Toy.
i picked this up a couple of weeks ago, i havent had much time to spend on it because of work but im off the next couple of days and will make up for it. it's a 69 and i absolutely love it i guess i can say it's perfectly imperfect haha. 4 on the floor and a 350 4 bolt main. runs and drives, not perfect but runs and drives, def needs brake work so i'll be spending some time online tonight looking to see what my options are. also needs exhaust work (A LOT) which i will be ordering thursday. any help on where and what exhaust would be best will be greatly appriciated. also any suggestions on where to find parts for her would be awesome too. i'm thinking on lowering all the way around but just not quite sure which path i'm tinking on it.
 pulled the boards.  decided i'm going to narrow and shorten the bed as well as remove the boxes

Re: New Member, New Toy.
thank you, and i am definately keeping it a dually. i got to spend some time with her today. fixed the brake issue, the previous owner told me the brakes weren't working well and that he had replaced the wheel cylinders. on the drive home i realized they just needed to be bled, i gravity bled them today and is now stopping great (for drum brakes) hahaha. planning on working on why she's falling on her face at w.o.t. tomorrow... any suggestions on transmissions? something with more than 4 gears.
