Joe, that truck is incredible. Have you done a thread on it with pix detailing the marks, shocks and all that?

How many miles have you put on it since you got it?

All paint is original except rockers and inside of cab.
When I had my detailer buff it last year, he said "that's the last time we can do that. That stuff's getting thin". lol

I love the original paint and patina stuff. They only have original paint once. This old girl will never see a paint gun (except maybe in the engine bay)

Took me years to find a truck this dry and straight. Rene, I envy you guys on the west coast.

All of the above trucks are beautiful.

OH MAN! I'm glad you posted you truck with that Littrell Emblem! That is where my '68 was sold new. I have the Littrell Motor Company stamp on the Protect O Plate booklet.

draggin49 · 09-05-2013, 10:58 PM

She dont have anything on most of the pics in this thread but she is original paint/interior

She was awful under the hood, so I just did a quick rattle can job to make it look decent, wont be touching anything else

Faintly can see the white pinstriping

Just a plain jane original 307/ 3speed on the column, 48, 000 miles

That's awesome. I tried and tried to get some more info on the dealership, but they've been defunct for many years.

I did too. The only thing I found was some old ads in a Athens State College yearbook and a business profile of the company.
