Oh I bet! That truck looks taller with someone standing by it. How long has he had it?

Wow! I love that interior! I wanna put bucket seats in my truck.

I just did a frame off, total restoration, everything is new that could be bought, Including the price of the truck, I quit counting at $20,000 because the wife kept asking how much I was spending and now I don't have to lie to her because I really don't know. The short answer is "It ain't Cheap"

The best part is when you think your done, not really. After driving it a few months I decided it needed more power so I bought a 68 T-Bird 390, it's in the machine shop as I write this being rebuilt, Not going to be a radical rebuild but it will have new pistons, Comp Cam Kit, Eledbrock Intake with a Holley Carb, Header's, new Exhaust and a new Mini Starter to clear the headers, Like I said it never ends..........

Here's some pictures, You be the judge but I think it's worth every dollar I spent.

Wow! That thing is nice!

I have buckets/racing seats in my mud truck for a 3 point harness. They are now required down here because 2 years ago a guy I ran with every year was killed. He was just wearing a regular seat belt with no helmet, which are also required now.

It has a 71-72 grill on it so I'm guessing its one of those 2.

I really think I might go with a white out side. And a white paint jobs won't break the bank. Its a fairly cheap paint to spray.
