Story so far

This truck was my first vehicle. I bought it for $700 cash from a man who had been using it to haul his burn barrels to the dump.

When I got it, it was pretty rusted and worn down. Had the in-line 6 (250 LD4 I think) and the 4 speed manual transmission. I spent all my saving and took up a bay in my dad’s shop for a long time trying to clean up the body and interior. Spent too little money on a paint job. Biggest thing we did was swap out the in-line six for a 350 that I was able to get bored out 30 over. Unfortunately still have the 4 speed (really and 3 speed with that granny gear) but that’s on the short list.
