Dream '69

When I was a kid my neighbor across the street had a '70 SWB 4X4 with a 350/350 that he had bought new. The truck was faded red with a black interior and was all original. That truck was the reason why I have always loved the 67-72 trucks and always wanted a SWB 4x4. In 2003 I was living in Juneau, AK and saw this truck sitting on the side of the road for sale. I immediately turned around and bought the truck. The older gent who was selling it had bought it in Spokane, WA and was the third owner. It originally came with a 6 cyl. but the 2nd owner had swapped in a 283 and replaced the grill. It still had the original SM 465 and Rockwell T-221 T-case. It was a great low mileage, relatively rust-free truck and I drove it as it was for almost 10 years.
