Hi, newbie here with a '65

Hey guys, I got a '65 I have been playing with for a while now. When I got it, from GA it was just an old bare bones farm truck. Now it is a bare bones truck with air ride. Here are some pictures.

Seems to be a strong motor. Shifter locks up every once in a while though. That can be a pain.
