Good lookin' truck. Looks to be pretty solid for a Canadian truck, eh?
But, somehow I don't think that first pic looks like Canada in February. Way too many leaves on the trees and a guy in the pic with short sleeves.

Excellent! I like seeing all the early knee knockers getting some attention.

cliffy · 02-26-2010, 06:05 PM

yeah well I ain 't got enough experience drivin this one yet to call it a kneeknocker...but after workin on it this long its definately a friggin head and elbow knocker, lol.

Not a Canadian truck, but close,this truck is actually from Whitefish Montana. The first pic is from the owner before I went there, but yeah, it was last July when I gotter home.
Still. it is in good shape rust wise or I wouldna bothered with it. I showed you the worst of the rust, floors and the bottom on one fender and maybe the other. Cab corners are good and the box is solid as a church cept for the wood. The fenders were bondo'd up severely and blistered, but after I got it all off there was solid metal but a lotta tiny dents...rocks I guess.
More pics comin later.
Broke the windsheild last night takin it out.(see drunk thread).
was layin it over on the hood and it caught on the wiper shaft. $425 screwup.
