She's Back YEAH!

i owned this exact truck 10 years ago this month. i sold it with the agreement if he ever considered selling it than i would have first right of refusal. he is a man of his word so i again own this 1965 mostly original truck except one repaint. he put 1725 miles on it in 10 years! still under 60,000 orig miles
first pic was in 2011, the other 3 pics are now 2021. enjoy!

Re: She's Back YEAH!

I really beginning to like the look of side moldings on solid paint fleetsides, the hint of white, but not too much white as we see in tu tone paint combinations. The only thing I would change is the raised white lettering on the tires, IMO, kind of conflicts with the white hubcaps.
