Its here. I finally have my truck. Shes a diamond in the rough and needs some work, but I'm up to the challenge.

These were from the guy who sold her to me. My wife took off with my camera for a vacation. There will be more soon I hope.

Not bad- better than my trucks right now.
Is that an OD on the column?

Canadiansailor 02-25-2008 09:39 PM

It is. like I said the 351 has to go though, I want to put a 292 back in. Right now she screams at 40 mph.

Looks like a straight body too.

That looks like a good solid truck for a project. Keep us posted.

Looks like the body is pretty solid....I would keep the 351 though.

nice truck hope you have fun with it!

Canadiansailor 02-26-2008 11:41 PM

I hoe to have some fun with it too. I would keep the engine but I can't do more than 45 - 50 mph with it; and I want to bring her back to as close to Off-The-Lot condition as I can get.

Thanks for the votes of confidence. My wife still says I'm nuts.

You should have known that you would get 100% thumbs up from WAFTE members!...LOL

You know that, And I know that, and I'm sure everyone else in here does too. But the important thing is that my wife still doesn't see the light!!!


This is all firepower for me to say "I told you it was a good truck, see so does everyone else that looks at her!!!":-missingt

So thanks again for the votes!!
