I have the 64-66 itch
Been looking around my area, lots of good trucks. I really want a clean original paint truck that I can just build the chassis/drivetrain for and drive the wheels off of.
Here's a pic of one that a guy offered my today. It's a solid 41K original mile truck completely intact. He wants $3k which is more than I want to spend up front but this would be a very nice start and it has a perfect paint job: ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

Re: I have the 64-66 itch
Brother.... That is an excellent starting point! That sheet metal looks pretty straight & the patina looks just about perfect
![]() BTW.... There's only 1 cure for that itch. I know.

That meets this desire well...!!! That looks to be just what you are looking for. Sometimes finding one of these trucks cheap is a problem, but sometimes you run up on a deal... If I was in the market, and had the cash, I would pick it up... You can always "make an offer"... ![]() |

Re: I have the 64-66 itch
NICE. Looks straight, I would take it.
You may think $3k is an expensive starting point but getting one that requires a lot of work to be dependable on the road adds up quickly. I wish my 66 would have looked like yours. I got it cheap, $500, it ran and stopped, but I am quickly beyond the $3k mark with fixing rust, rebuilding the original six banger, suspension upgrade, complete new wiring, etc., and it is still months away from hitting the road. |

Re: I have the 64-66 itch
Well if my sportster sells, I'll go for it. I'm really curious though if those bullets were shot from outside where else did they go?

Re: I have the 64-66 itch
That would be a great starter for a project. What are your plans if you buy this truck?
