That will be some nice "Raw Material" to work with... Unmalested.... A nice project to tackle!

Low Elco · 12-04-2013, 01:47 PM

Fire up the Sawzall! Good place to start!

What are you going to do first? Looks like a rocker is bad? I think you have a good buy and I know you are going to make it look sweet!

Nice find

glos55 · 12-07-2013, 07:26 AM

All the glass in this thing looks new, it's perfect compared to condition of the truck.

LOL, all the classics are stored away until spring here and pretty much all you see are new SUV's and Trucks. The salt trucks are out in force!!

glos55 · 12-10-2013, 06:14 AM

Might have found another two factory options for 1964......key lock in passenger door handle and day/night rearview mirror?

glos55 · 12-13-2013, 07:55 AM

Got the starter on and motor turned over, sounded good but no spark. Switched out wheels and tires. Finding acorns stashed everywhere as this thing sat out in the woods for years!

Not to much?????? That is a good question. Do we guys pay $400 for a new purse or $200 for a new pair of black shoes when we already have 30 pair of black shoes? Do we spend $40 a week for our nails? Do we spend endless hours shopping and wasting time look at things we have no business looking at.......no.

Please ask her to define to much...........my wife see junk....I see gold.

Looks like a good find to me and if you paid to much who cares enjoy it.

JAM55 · 12-13-2013, 10:08 AM

look good Gloss...

My wife laughed hysterically at this! then proceeded to tell me that you hot rodder guys are such jerks....

glos55 · 12-13-2013, 12:22 PM

Thanks Jam55, the front wheels and tires are too small so I ordered new ones. I will put the 15 X 8 with the 255/60/15's on the front and put the new 15 X 8 with 275/60/15's on the rear. the truck goes to S&H Custom Auto next week to get lowered.
