I just got my new 71 longhorn today!
Has camper package with dual batteries,th400 tranny,cst package,A/C,ps,pb,and Cruise control and original tach,headliner, dual saddle tanks with a fill nozzle inside rear wheel well.Originally had the 402 engine but the guy kept that. Thats alright as I prefer a 350 anyway.She has alittle rust in the rockers and cab corners.The box seems to be rust free and the bed wood is buckled in a couple of spots.all the trim is there with the exception of the upper box trim on drivers side being bent.Tailgate may not be saveable as one big crush on leading edge.Otherwise I think she"s restorable.
pretty good shape for Iowa.
What do you think?
