Here's her story: It started over 40 years ago when a local farmer gave us the truck if we would remove from his property. That's my Dad and I picking her up in 1979.

We chopped it together in 1980-81. Then life got in the way, but after school, work, overseas assignment, marriage, kids and other life events, we finally got back to it in 2017. Thanks to my Dad for his enormous help and expertise throughout the project. I learned so much!

Body work and paint all done in the driveway by Bill Sr and Jr. (mostly Sr).

Art Morrison GT Sport Chassis including parallel 4 bar rear suspension, IFS, Strange Engineering coil overs and rear end, Wilwood discs; Chevy Performance 350 with aluminum heads and Holley carb.

Thanks for looking.
You should have left those turn signals on the top of he cab, LOL. Jokeing!!
You've done some impressive work on it, and it shows. You have had that truck so long it's a family heirloom now. I hope you have a kid who wants it and appreciates it and will take good care of it when you get ready to pass it on.
