[Ironhorse]

Had my truck since '86 when I bought it as a real rust bucket 4x4 but I wanted a 67-72 4x4 long bed. Replaced the doors, hood, both fenders, the bed and tailgate. Only thing original to the frame is the cab itself but that had both inner and outer rockers replaced, cab supports, moved the gas tank under the bed behind the rear axle, installed factory tach, tow hooks, floor shift tilt, aftermarket 40/20/40 custom seat and coming up next is a for real live working factory am/fm stock radio. Stopped at a Gas-N-Go one day for a cold drink and came out to find a guy walking around the truck with the inevitable " Your truck for sale?" Being in a good mood I said "If the money is big enough it is" Next thing I hear " $8,500 sound big enough?" Had to do some fast back peddling then. Gave it some quick though and decided
"Nope, can't do it" Glad he didn't offer $10,000. Of course my youngest son would have been VERY upset with Ol' Dad.
