72 highlander 3/4 ton back from the dead!

This is my 72 c-20 that has been sitting since 2000, it was my daily driver around 97 or 98 the motor lost compression and it got parked.I built a new motor for it but it took a while and for one reason or another I just never got it going then around 2000 i sold it to a friend of mine who got it going and fixed the a/c but he could'nt stand the gas milage so he traded it back to me a few months later.And it has been sitting ever since, I spent a couple days piddeling on it and got it running again,I'm going to get the insurance and tag this week so i can start driving it a couple days a week. i forget how much fun these trucks are!! I hope you will enjoy these pictures as much as i enjoy driving my truck! Now i have to get my other ones going!
