Talking They have arrived.

I picked up my (3) early 70's crew cabs lat sat.
As I stated on an earlier post, I do plan to post pics.
Again , the trucks I recieved are a 70' F-350 longbed, a 70' F-250 shortbed, and my new personal daily driver, a 71' F-250 shortbed.
I plan on getting a paint job as soon as possible. Inside and out. Rebuilding the front end, new bushings all around and front discs.
I'll keep in touch.

Happily (pants wearing) married. With that said. Two are in storage and two are at the house.

I may wear the pants but, she does have some control on the tightness of that belt.

Rubber pants don't qualify!

I'm with ya! As soon as I pick up the 67 F250 I just bought from California, I'll have 3 old project trucks in the driveway/shop/garage.

Married with pants!

Secret for the single guys: Be yourself. If you like buying and working on old trucks, don't wait until you are married to tell her :-)

They all are 2wds. Ultimately I would like her to be a 4wd. That idea is at the bottom of the list. Never had a 4wd, so I'm not really missing much.
Again, I'm will try to get a scanner by this weekend and post all my beauties. Being that I will pretty much be using the scanner to post pics of my projects, I'll have a couple of days to come up with some reasons I can use it for my business. You know my (shorts wearing) other half will question the purchase.

Oh, 1968F250LWB
Their demin, always have been always will.
