both trucks have no frame rust which is good. but i'll have to wait and see which one is more mechanically sound to figure which one i work on.. and which one will be the parts truck,,

well do you guys think it's a good deal both of them for $900.oo ???

most of the missing parts are in the bed... and a few are missing all toghter. like the left side inner fender well. but i got a cataloug with it in there, [ oh yeah i also got a lot of catalougs coming for these trucks ]

im not a new truck type of guy.. but to buy one of these in good shape... cost a small fortune and im not a rich man. so i got to build my dream truck,,,, but once i put it on the road. i'll never get rid of it, my life long passion was to own a old classic. and in a few months that will be a reality

Re: hello from florida [ the dirty redneck south ]

a little about me.

im a truck driver been one since 91' right now i work for a major fertilizer company in north florida. delivering to big farms. thus where i first run across the 60'? it was a old farm truck that got parked, the farmer said he winterized it, and it ran when he parked it,

i grow my own personal tobaccoo usually about 400 plants a year, and generally keep something in my garden all year round... im in the process of restoring a old 1974 troy-bilt horse tiller. it runs and tills but im re-painitng it and eventually will get the new decals for it
..


and this is what it looks like now,
