68 Panel Abuse
1968 Panel turned in a NASA shuttle. What abuse of a rare truck.

Re: 68 Panel Abuse
Yeah, that pic comes up on the pickups board every once and a while. It must be a great side-of-the-road eye-catcher.

Re: 68 Panel Abuse
Well,it won`t rust in outerspace.And,once there,you can cruise at thousands of miles per hour with the motor off and in neutral.

Re: 68 Panel Abuse
you know, its too bad one of those liberal animal rights activists groups doesnt have an interest in these trucks, they could mount a protest and force the owner to set that thing free.

Re: 68 Panel Abuse
I`ll bet the black area(heat tiles)is total rot.There are alot of these deemed to far gone due to lower rear 1/4 rot.At least it`s up and dry for whenever someone wants to take a restoration on.Can you imagine showing before and after shots once it became a sweet ride again?
