Hi all-
My name's Mark, and I'm in northern California rebuilding a 1970 3/4 ton 4X4 p/u. Truck has always been in my family (my father drove it home from the dealer) and over the time it's been mine it's shown me why my grandfather (the original owner) refused to sell it. Pretty basic truck, but has the 350. Right now I'm replacing the bed (old one was badly battered hauling flagstone off a rockslide in Wyoming which a civil engineer swore could never be accessed by road). Looking to keep it as original as possible/feasible, though I went ahead and replaced the original split rims with solid wheels (got tired of breaking them down myself and all the odd looks I got at tire shops when I asked for radial tubes and flaps). The more I learn about this truck the happier I am- I really would like to make it into a good-looking daily driver...
