Vehicle Overview

Bought in Aug '23 as a 50th Bday gift and also to have something for my 15yr old and I to work on and to teach him how to wrench a lil bit and to drive. Bought for $10k from a friend; original owner passed away and they wanted to keep his truck close to home. 95k original miles. Have since been obsessed with "Ole Timer" aka "DagoRed"... new installs include Vintage Air, Classic Stereo, new wiring harness throughout, Holley Sniper EFI, HEI distributor w/ single wired alternator, new walnut trim dash bezel/glove box trim w/ walnut door panel, instrument cluster, new dash. All the neighbors and kids come by to go for a ride and smell that 70s 'Merica Old School interior smell!! In love with this Baby!!

Future Plans

Currently redoing the entire interior; insulation for sound/gas vapor/heat vs. cold/new black carpet, upholstery, headliner, accents, with walnut trim/chrome throughout, led bulb upgrades here n there. Want to add 35" tires with either a leveling kit or small suspention lift, new shocks, body mount rubber..
