i hope your not planning on a full resto, if you are you certainly have your work cut out for you.

I want a solid running truck out of it. It is going to be my ranch truck. I also found some paper records in it. That said that the truck belonged to brown logging and was used as recently as 1985. I have actually found the driver and I have been trying to get in contact with him.

That is a pile of shit. Why would you want that. For $1000 more, you could get a decent base for a light restoration.

Hey it was free and it is an important part of the local history of my town. But other than that you are right

I got it out.

dude i hate to break this to you but that things only good for a rod project, seriously by the time you get done making that basic runner of a truck you will have built 90% of the car new. might as well look elsewhere.

It does not look like it but the body and the fenders are in great shape. So what I want to do is put it on a 1970s Chevy truck frame and drive train. But that is a long way off.
