Re: Would you buy this truck?
Scottrod71,
That really sucks but at least you got it taken care of.
Tynee,
I kind of wish I would have just bought the truck and then see if I could have gotten the title or found the last registered owner. You don't find too many factory big block trucks around here and this truck did have the factory air. I doubt I would have found too much hidden rust because I crawled under the truck and everything was very solid under there. No rust in the floor pans and the underside of the bed was rust free with just some very light surface rust. I'm not kidding when I say that this truck was probably one of the most rust free trucks of this body style that I have seen that has not been restored and I have looked at a lot of these trucks. Most of the trucks that I have looked at that look pretty decent from the top side look terrible when you look underneath them.
I don't want to start with a rust bucket because that is where most of your money is going to go. I had my 1970 Monte Carlo's body redone in the early ninties and the body was pretty decent rust wise but it still cost me a bunch of money to get it all done. It now needs another paint job because of too many years of sitting outside. Thanks for all the responses.
