Re: check out what i just picked up

i have been wanting a truck like this ever since i was in high school working on my friends '68 stepside with original 327 and three on the tree. he still has that truck also.

I will be keeping this one and trying to restore it. already put new wheels and tires added tach and a sunpro gauge cluster so i can keep tabs on what is going on under the hood. uncle had a mouse and coon problem so wiring is a mess. fixing things as they come up but it was a steal really i couldn't pass it up.

Re: check out what i just picked up

nice truck

being from TX bet there ain't too much rust on it either.

is that "Great Stuff" insulation sprayed into the heater core box and into the hole in the firewall near where the clutch pedal bar would come through?

Re: check out what i just picked up

what it really needs is a front grill and disc brakes up front and a "sway bar" in a bad way
