Funny thing with old cars. Most of them hold good memories.

I think this truck may just do that as well.

Thank you very much.

It has taken a while to find something we were able to pull the trigger on, but I think we are both happy.

Thanks for all the pics Rian. I feel your pain on the radio install and instrument bezel. The radio hack is typical. Yours looks better than mine. Did they hack up the doors for speakers too. Have you ordered all your catalogs from LMC, Brothers, Classic Parts, Classic industries.

LMC sells the dash lens. But you will need new gauges as well.

Hi Bret, thanks for the link.

Not cheap, but probably worth it. This is when a $300 breaker truck can become worth having.

I have been looking for a Jerry can to use as a reserve to my fuel tank.....

Tonight I realized that I have the perfect jerry can, I bought it for about £5 at a boot fair last year, just coz I liked it.

Whatcha think ??




Now just need to find a decent steel trunk for the rear.
