thanks for all the + comments. i forgot to put in the first post how nice it is to have a like minded friend to go along and help and take all those pictures.
to answer some of the ??,s- i plan to make a road tractor. it pulled nice and easy behind my daully which is 4/wheel drive and that may be why it looks a little nose high. my truck does good on gas { if you are exxon } it got 10 going and 8 coming back. the coe was located in a mountainous area, so i had lots of up and down the hill driving. it was only around 200 miles round trip, which makes this find even sweeter.
i will adds some interior shots that show some personal touchs from the past in a day or two. got her off the trailer tonight and now to get her started and get the brakes up.
thanks again doug
