It is all I got! Sad story, it was the original bed and was rust free, but the stupid POs cut the fenders up and put those nasty fender flares over the awful cuts. I straightened the cuts, but eventually replaced the fenders on all 4 corners. See picture. Therefore, It will become either a trailer, continue to be a paint stand, or sell it to a rock crawler who wants a super cheap sed of cut fenders and a bed.

Not a problem, I do a lot of different things and have learned the hard way and I only want to help.

I really appreciate it. Anything I can learn before doing any more work, the better.

Unfortunately some people don't like the original lines and play amature butcher and wreck a work of art.

Seems to have been the case with mine. Thankfully I found a bed and fenders cheap enough to not set me back too far.

Took ol silver for a fast lap, worked on ol blues carb issue. Got tired of flipping the step stool, so I went and grabbed a shorty table. It works great!

Sold some truck parts to a fellow FTE member that stopped buy, and took both Bronco's for a back 40 lap.

Put on the grip tires since finally have a little snow on the ground...

Drove her to church, much more fun to drive with properly functioning brakes!

Ordered some sound deadener and a new headliner to quiet the interior a bit.

Wired tail section, routed front section wires.

Surprisingly I did the exact same thing!

I'm on a 48 hour shift today and tomorrow. Hope to get the dash and ignition done Tuesday.

What harness are you using?

Nothing...


I left home a week ago for a two week shift, got on site and was informed I needed to stay for six weeks... Only five more weeks to go.

Started ol silver because it going on a road trip tomorrow, to get a new windshield!

I'm glad it's raining, but I can't go skiing or work on my truck
