Please don't take this thread off topic.....

Throw some Carli suspension and AMP power steps at it and call it good.

No idea what it is worth but it looks like a great project.

Todays fun fact......25% of my posts are in this thread

Joel, drive safely to Fargo. Love that area.

Gavin, that truck looks really nice. I'd take the value of the truck after a full frame up restoration, less your approximate cost to restore it (a estimation, figure worst case), less what you want to make in profit and that is your maximum bid. Then through it all away because the cost to restore is too hard to determine. I know it is a nice looking truck and it will likely go around $7k. My buddy just bought a similar truck in Iowa for $6500 but it was a little rougher than that one, but close.

Good morning boys! Have a great day...

Howdy folks.

We got a birthday party third AM then off to the lake. Can't believe summer is almost over. Seemed to go extra quick this year.

Have a good weekend
