Anybody remember this Double Cab from Lake Havasu City, AZ?

[emersonbiggins]

I bought this Double Cab here in Nebraska but it came from Lake Havasu City, AZ back in 1999. I was looking for some past history or pictures.
A previous owner listed on the title is Terry Bellmore from AZ.
Easiest way to identify it is the holes in the rear vents.

Terry Bellmore now lives in Kingmn az. I looked at that bus once while it was in still in Havasu, he moved and the bus disapeared. I think it was even at my shop for a while while Terry worked on i.
I don't quite remember but I think that might be the one he got off the Indian reservation in ParkerAZ

Ed-

Nice score there buddy. Do you have the gates for it? What do you have planned for it?

[emersonbiggins]

I did not get gates with it.
When the previous owner bought it it had gates but he is an over the road truck driver and took the gates to California to have them repaired. The place he took them closed up while they had his gates and he couldn't find where they might have gone.
I have another double cab and might borrow the gates off it for a while.
I just want to get the truck back to driveable condition then I will decide what to do with it.

Got started on it again in December of 2022 and just about ready to drive it.

Nice, out of a long slumber and a whole new look.

Wow! Looks great since you've been back on it! I see that you found gates and repaired that hole in the vents among other stuff. I wonder what the hole(s) was for? Nice to see another old DC in the Midwest (I've got a '59 DC east of you in Missouri).

WOW! NICE! Is that L345 light grey paint? If so where did you get that color and are you happy with it compared to the factory color? We have a 1960 walk thru panel with L345 factory paint and need to get new paint soon for the reapairs.

I also put the type e motorsports brakes on it so I’m excited to drive it.

Do you like the mirrors? Fit well/stay in place/easy on? I have a set but haven't put them on. Not sure if the truck will fit through the garage door with sidemirrors!

Any issues installing the brakes? What specific parts did you buy (they don't include it all to save money). Also have that kit waiting to be installed someday.

I was totaling up receipts from the last year and even though I did almost all the work myself I still spent over 10K in just parts.
