We have been wanting an old truck for quite sometime now and it's pretty cool to finally have one! It was restored by a guy in VT back in '98 so it's not perfect but it's a real fun driver with a bored out 350, cam, 4 barrel, headers, Camaro front end. The truck is slightly more modified than what we were looking for and it is quite yellow, watch for pics coming soon!
So many old rigs, so little garage space!

You certainly wouldn't miss that on a dark night!
Nice looking truck,I see you also have a couple other 'toys',assuming that's your garage in the pics.
Have fun!
Jock.

Refinishing the top wooden rail on the bed of the truck today. Great day for stuff to dry in this bright sunshine. We drove the ole jewel up to Saranac Lake and Lake Placid last night to show the inlaws. We're having lotsa fun with it but the old Mustang is starting to feel left out!

Thanks for the opinion about the bumper and the terminology lesson!

Welcome,

Not sure what the factory one is supposed to look like. Maybe ask that question in one of the other forums. You might get more responses there. | | | | | Joined: Oct 2005 Posts: 688 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Oct 2005 Posts: 688 | Doug Welcome to the bolt!  Cliff59 | | |
