New guy with plow.

I have been watching since summer when I bought my 62 basket case and you guys have helped alot. I got this to replace my jeep for plowing drives (not for hire) mine and friends. As I was putting it back together and undoing what the previous owners had done, I put a steel bed floor and a dump under it using the under the hood hydrolics for the plow. Not a show truck but a nice looking daily driver to help with the chores. I willl throw some paint on it when the weather gets better. I put the sanford and son on as a joke,but it sure gets a lot of laughs and comments. I'll remove that when I paint it. Thanks guys for all your help!!

Re: New guy with plow.

Welcome....nice 4X Is it an original 4x4 or has it been converted? Looks like you've got a decent '60-'61 grill, is it aluminum or is it a chromed steel one?

The frame is from a 79 chevy witch is nice to have power disk brakes, v8 and an auto trans. The grill is steel but the wiring was a mess, even the plugs on the back of the headlights had been changed.
I put a seat from a 2001 chevy pickup whith the seatbelts in the seat and that worked great.

Re: New guy with plow.

I dig your rig...welcome to the forums from Kansas City, KS.

I vote for keeping the S&S Salvage on it after you paint it. Don't forget to post early & often.

Happy Holidays.
