New member from Central Illinois
Hi all: I recently purchased a 71 SWB that needs some TLC and I can't wait to dig in to her. I joined a few weeks ago and have been browsing the site and this is the place to be, many members that know what there talking about. My 71 was built in ST Louis so it's been in the central climate it's whole life and needs sheet metal. Luckly I ran across a 68 3/4 TON ,LWB, 2WD (less motor/tranny) from arizona very close by with a rust free cab so that saves me a ton of work, but I be needing a SWB Bed. The bed on the 68 (LWB) is in great cond. and I would trade it for a SWB bed in the same rust free 9or close) cond. Heck I'll trade the 3/4 ton 2WD rolling chassis and Bed for a nice SWB Bed. I'm getting ready to pull the frontend/cab off so it will be avalible soon, I'll post it in the FOR SALE section when I'm close or email me at enjoylife@mchsi.com if you want to do some trading. Sorry for the rambling but it's exiciting owning one of these great trucks again...
