My 79 Longbed Stepside

I have had this truck for about 6 years sitting behind my shop just collecting dust. Decided it need to get some attention. Currently the truck has a straight six with a three on the tree. Going to swap it over to a 350 combo i have sitting around. Being built for a shop truck parts hauler. Rebuilt the front suspension and painted frame. Starting to tackle body work. When i bought the truck the interior was gutted and missing. Just picked up complete interior from a truck that was being parted out. Starting to look like a truck again.

Re: My 79 Longbed Stepside

When i got the truck never new that the long steppers were rare. Just figured 300 bucks for a truck that ran and drove was to good to pass up
