Hey Mountain that is a very nice truck. I'll have to get ahold of some of you Alberta guys on my next trip to the Cow town. I have a ton of family and friends out there and usually manage at least one trip a year. And longhornmail not to disrespect your wife or anything but if you're so anxiouse to get rid of her how good a trade could it really be. LOL.

Yah, Stingray, I've never seen a rebuilt kit for women, either.......Not that I could afford anyway,

Longhorn Man · 03-22-2002, 07:02 PM

Well, she don't need rebuilt, only 29 yrs old, but she could use a good tune up.

You know...slugish performance, gettin a little slow. Startin to show her age too.

Hey Mountain, that is one sweet truck you have!!

Do you know the black '67 that is in the Calgary Trader? I have been doing some emailing back and forth with the guy. Looks good in the pic, but fear lots of work from what he has told me. Hope to have a look at it on Easter weekend.

Thanks for the kind words guys.
Slam33 - the paint code is Platinum Silver Metallic (don't shoot me but it is a 1996 chrysler color, the brightest silver I could find). It has three coats of clear over it.

Not quite done with the truck, need to paint engine compartment (touch up). Don't think a guy ever really finishes with things to do with these trucks.
