History of truck:
Wife's G-father bought new in 71 from Local Dealership. Kept it in a garage and drive it to work some and fishing some.
I told her I wanted that truck when it was time to sale it and he came to me and said it was time. He told me a price and I gladly paid it!
I have done very little to it for a truck this old.
Finally had seat recovered. I messed up the front bumper acting dumb in the back yard when we were moving. Rear bumper was a step bumper and I replaced it with a chrome unit. Later added the hitch to it to pull the trailer/car. Lowered it 3/4. And of course the motor/trans swap.
Its a great truck! Love driving it (in the cooler days).
