Grandparents gave me a birthday present!!!

[double_a_ron]

This was my Great Grandfathers truck. I never knew him and never knew he had this truck until we started clearing out his estate. The truck has been sitting at my parents house for a month or so now and I have been telling my grandpa (who now owns the estate) that I was going to buy it from him. He said that was fine and take as much time as I needed paying him for it.

Well, yesterday was my birthday. Today I get a card from my grandparents in the mail that says if I am interested in restoring the truck, its mine! Happy Birthday! I'm still speechless! Never crossed my mind that they would do something like this for me.

Anyway.. Details.. 1969 Chevy C-10 Longbed. 307 motor. 74,000 original miles. No rust whatsoever, windshield wipers still work, body is straight, and the a/c even still blows cold!

My brother threw some wheels on it that he had on his 61' that help out a little. It's a terrible cell phone photo but I will get some better pictures when I have time.
