It arrived. Couldn't be more happy.

Not sure if I'll be able to get it readily drivable before cold weather really sets in this year or not. Sure was fun to be back in the ol saddle, until it ran out of gas going to the gas station. Ugh.

LOL

Ohio to Utah. It got white washed going through Wyoming though. The guys hit a dust storm or something.

I drove it with my Dad in about 26 hours. I think the guys towing it took about 36hrs.


We had our first snow fall in the valley this year so the truck is officially put up for the winter. I got to drive it twice before putting her up. Man did I miss her. Now it's time to tackle the rust and start tearing her apart :(

Will do Adam. The rust on the roof right above the windshield has a few spots the size of a quarter that were just starting to pit. They aren't bad, and require nothing more than grinding out and body work. Luckily no patching will be required.

I've been compiling a list of parts needed and wanted to update and fix the truck how I want. It's pretty substantial lol. Luckily Ebay has some pretty decent prices on new parts.
