Had the truck now for a couple months and fixed all the leaks, rebuilt the power steering pump and control valve. It is going to need valve guides and seals and new bed wood next. My focus may have changed. Now I'm wavering of whether to do a full cab off resto on it or keep it driver quality. Not real fond of the repaint it got in black 6 years ago, much prefer the bright colors. The truck was originally light green in color. I'll probably pull the bed off and cleanup the rear portion of the chassis after the new year and decide how nutty I'm going to get. Until then Merry Christmas to you all.
