Wow, you could film an episode of Baywatch on that sand pile. Nice job on those parts.

Baywatch was a tough show to watch, so many slow motion bouncing scenes made it hard to follow the plot.

A cassette to 8-Track adapter. I had one in my 68 Fargo pick-up. It was to get rid off the suitcase holding the 8-track tapes, and use a shoe box for cassettes.

68 here today and I put 46 miles on my truck and deleted about 4 gallons of gas. Had to roll down the window for some fresh air.

It was 59 in Central PA today. I deleted gas out of both trucks today. I used the 54 to go to the eye doctor and run some errands. Then I used the 55 to do some work at our soccer complex then drove it to my body man to get an estimate on some body work and a repaint.

If I get it repainted it will delete more cash from my account than I had anticipated!

I didn't do the paint and most interior. I did motor, tranny, suspension, brakes, wheels lots of little stuff. Body, frame and floors all original mint condition. It was a great find. Still need to do small stuff. I guess our vehicles are never really finished
