This is my new toy. My uncle built it about 20 years ago and decided recently to sell it so I snatched it up

very nice ride, i was expecting to see a dated build from the 80's, but that one is timeless and very cool.

clos69 · 03-16-2011, 09:46 PM

Very nice truck!!! The only change i would make is adding the factory mirrors back on....sweet truck.

**72 Super** · 03-16-2011, 09:48 PM

Your uncle did a great job, very mild, I like it.

racer57 · 03-16-2011, 10:31 PM

Thanks for the compliments guys! The truck was originally a longbed and he had it cut down. He put all new trim on when he was doing everything and after that the truck spent the majority of the time in the garage and hasn't been out of the garage in the last 10 years. It has some minor things that need to be done but overall it's in almost perfect shape.

70jnktrk · 03-16-2011, 10:48 PM

keepin it in the family!...louvers look great..unique

packrat42 · 03-19-2011, 12:15 PM
