That`s alright!I wish I could drive only these trucks year`round.I stopped in`89.I still drove my C/30 work truck until`92.Have you had it long?

I have had this particular truck about two years and I bought it just like it is. I have collected all the stuff to add power steering and power disc brakes but haven't had the time to do it yet. It's kinda ugly but I like it anyway. and I like the bronze color (thats the original paint on it) so I'm going to repaint it the same color.

Thanks. I love the truck. The faded sign on the side used to say NEV GAS for nevada gas it was a propane company back in the day. The business cards I found under the seat were old and the phone number was 355-1970 (Im not positive of the first three because I tossed the cards) The truck was purchsed at the local chevrolet dealership used to be hallman chevrolet.
