Re: Barn Find/rusty treasure
I went to look at a 65 shortbed stepside on craigslist. I ended up bringing home the entire collection of trucks and parts.

Re: Barn Find/rusty treasure
Here's mine as I found it. The P.O. had been keeping it on his friend's property and it sat with a load of trash in the bed for about two years. It's a long term project, but I recently replaced the rusty bed and that was a big step.
