This is when we went and looked at the truck and asked if they would take payments? the guy had to ask his brother.(That was the owner) After a sleepless nite my son got the call that they would let him make payments for it...
This is the happy new owner after weeks of working hard at scrapin and paying for it with his own moneys.
this is a pic of it after a new carb,fuel pump and oil/filter change.(it hasnt ran in a few years ) After we got it running and teachin him how to smoke the tires, We removed all of the trim,emblems and welded up all of the holes and spot primed the work.
This is him welding up the holes on the tailgate.He wants to get a new gate in the future that is plain and relocate the latch to the inside...He is hoping to get a job this summer to buy parts for his truck like power steering/brakes,lowering kit rims tires,cowl hood, replace some of the rusted panels, and have the truck all in primer..Think he will have it legal and drive it to school next year (his jr year) We are so proud of him, he just got his Eagle Scout and has earned all of the moneys to buy and work on his truck. So nice to be apart of this with him.
