It was located not terribly far from where I live so I decided to go have a look...and brought it home on the trailer. There is quite a lot of usable tin on it that I'll be swapping onto my 51 1/2-ton project. And its got a visor...visors are cool. So this is how the sickness starts huh? As of right now I've got two un-driveable trucks,three 216s and a kitchen table covered with an in-progress carb rebuild. Pics of the new Bolt.

And if you've got a carb torn apart on the kitchen table, you're either single or else you have a VERY understanding wife!!!  | | | | | Joined: Nov 2011 Posts: 139 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Nov 2011 Posts: 139 | Congrats. I'd keep em away from each other. Seems like once you get 2 together they manage to breed. I started out with one to restore a few years ago and before I knew it had 6 in various states of disrepair. I'm finally down to one driver and one project. Therapy helps.  | | | | | Joined: Apr 2005 Posts: 1,107 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Apr 2005 Posts: 1,107 | So this is how the sickness starts huh?

Your prognosis is this: condition incurable without the antitoxin, "strong willed wife".

Good find, love the visor.

Good find, love the visor. The visor was a real selling point for this truck, it's awesome. And yep, I'm single and eat all of my meals sitting on the couch watching tv. | | |
