Re: Lets see your truck!
First post.
2 days in my hands, found it locally in VA. 71 longbed. Lot of the bodywork has been started with new tailgate, bedsides, outer rockers, cab corners, hood and inner/outer fenders. Previous owner did the paint job trying to preserve the patina/aged look and I'm not totally hating it right now, so will leave it for the time being. Strong 307 with 4bbl, 3sp column and dual exhaust, runs very strong and like a champ! Going to finish off the body work with inner rockers and rust in the bed then it'll be my goto truck for doing some home remodeling while I collect parts to start rebuilding from the inside out.
Always wanted an old chevy truck since before I could drive and now at 40, my wife would probably agree that this is probably one of the better mid-life crisis vehicles I could put money in to, though I'm sure she would have preferred something with AC and power steering.
