Definitely not TRYING to be talked out of it, but I've just seen a couple references to particularly drums being near impossible to find. Kinda funny, the truck is the Ocean Green, my wife's favorite color... whole house is decorated in it. When I showed her pics of the truck she essentially /demanded/ I buy it, so I'm just being.... cautious... we'll say that I'm not making a more emotional than intelligent decision. Drums can be turned, axles can be swapped, and with the knowledge on the forums, I'm sure I can get through whatever it may need. That's the thing that really draws me to this era... they're just so dead simple... if the parts are available, there's nothing /mechanically/ that scares me about 'em!
