Re: Barnfind today...heading to my shop now...
Those are so HUGE !!
I do like them. Would not work here in the UK as some of our roads are not as long or wide as this car.

Re: Barnfind today...heading to my shop now...
Amazing! What a score. Please post a bunch of pictures when you get time. I love looking at these time capsules. I just picked up an '86 this summer with only 56k miles on the clock. I know how excited you must be.

Re: Barnfind today...heading to my shop now...
Many, many miles as a boy riding in the middle seat of a truck that looked just like that. That's going to be fun for you. Take your time cleaning it up, and enjoy every minute of it.

Re: Barnfind today...heading to my shop now...
I misread the speedo reading...gettin old... it is 42141 miles...not 47000 as I originally listed....
Waiting on new fuel tank and pump and kit for carb...engine turns over fine, good compression,,,, Am going to change trans and diff oils...then replace all the brakes and flex lines... A nice Winter project for me....

Re: Barnfind today...heading to my shop now...
Just out of curiosity how stupid was the price. All of a sudden the squares have jumped in price with the brand new trucks fetching upwards of 100k. Guess it's cheaper to buy a truck for 10g and put another 20 into it restoring

Re: Barnfind today...heading to my shop now...
I cleared $12 k on the buy / sell process...
I spent around $200 in parts to get it driveable...couple of weekends work... Currently have a lead on a 79 Short bed stepper....usual rust,,,, but it runs and will drive if you don't mind it not having any brakes... Couple weeks will tell....
