Cool I couldn't walk away! A jet black 68' longbed!!!

Not my norm, but I thought this truck was very special and very hard to come by nowadays! ........ A clean black 68' longbed fleetside "Custom", with a V8, 3 on the tree with overdrive, AC cab, tinted "Soft-Ray" glass, and more........I just couldn't walk away. More pic's will be following!

It will be a cool truck after you work your magic. So I couldn't tell if it had bucket buddy seats Nate

Great lookin truck! I like short beds too but in my opinion there's something honorable about restoring the truck to its truest or most original fashion.

Re: I couldn't walk away! A jet black 68' longbed!!!

Thanks so much guys!!!!!! As you may or may not know, I normally do not buy longie's very often and what's funny about this whole thing is the former owner had been telling me about this truck for about 2 years! but as soon as the "L word" was mentioned, I would tell him that I wasn't interested, not till his daughter put it on "Craig's list" 2 days ago and I saw the photo's, then I couldn't call him fast enough! and I said to him......"You didn't tell me it was this nice!!!!!"
