Thanks, it is a pretty cool truck that I want to spend some time bringing it back and get it on the road again.

The truck has some interesting history and how I was able to buy it. I saw it on a Facebook group where a guy posted a picture of it saying " Had this truck for ten years and don't know what I want to do with it" I posted back that I thought it was a really neat truck and if you are ever interested in selling please let me know. About ten minutes later he PM'd me and said he would like to discuss selling the truck. We struck a deal and I went up to the California Oregon border to pick it up. At some point the truck hit a boulder or something and bent the tie rod and sheared a gear or so in the steering box so it would only turn right. Once I got it in the shop I removed the tie rod and steering box and replaced with one off another 67 4x4 I have. Truck came from factory with 17" split rims which is listed on the SPID. Anyways don't see many 3/4 ton long bed stepside trucks so this one will probably be a keeper.
Here are a few more picts, drivers side fender was smashed in so I removed it and heated it up and did a bunch of metal shaping, one of the interior also.
