Great video! Thanks for sharing.

How are the brakes? It sure seems to run well. And the winch works! Bonus.

Great find.

Now that is a really GREAT video. Brakes can come later. (unless you live on the side of a mountain like me). You can just bump into an old washing machine if you need to slow down. I love your style, AND that winch truck and look forward to seeing the progress. Welcome to FTE!

For all the surface rust, it looks like this beauty has been well tended during her life. Glad to see that she remains in good hands. Keep us posted on your progress!

Great video, amazing that everything works. Brakes are optional, just down shift. Stu

Sweet truck! Love the bed on it and the grill guard. I need one of those booms!
