My old truck came back for a visit...HOLY COW

I dont post much but thought this was a must to show.I sold my 70 SWB 4x4 With a 396BB to a guy who knocked on my door about a year ago and would not take no for an answer.I had it for 16 years and Lets just say I didnt let it go cheap but it was time to start pumping coin into it,Paint was starting to bubble,needed some TLC etc.I was more concerned selling it in the same town (its small) and seeing it drive I knew would be tough.At first I was worried about who I sold it to because he was using it as a daily driver and it was usually dirty when I saw it lol.Anyways we stayed in touch and became friends and yesterday he came by to show what he has doneto it.Here is a partial list
-502 Crate with 500 hp
-Frame off complete rebuild of front and rear ends
-rebuilt turbo 400 and 205 transfer case
-Complete new stainless exhaust with electronic side dumps
He has completely went thru the entire frame/drivetrain rebuilt or replaced every nut,bolt etc.and for now just put the old body back on.He said thats next years project.I am so glad I did sell it to a guy who obviously is looking after it.Too bad I dont know how to use video on my phone cause when he left within 100 feet he had to let off becuse it was almost sideweays.Anyway enough yapping and here is some pics.
