Well, I'm back. After a short hiatus from the classic truck scene I've come to my senses and to terms with who I am so I bought another truck. With the addition of the truck we are closing the deal next week, fingers crossed, on our first house. We wanted a truck to move so I was open to a long bed Anyways Im glad I did. I found a 1970 one family owned original paint king bed with some cool patina that's well.....hidden the original owners son thought he would preserve the truck by spray painting, with primer, over the faded areas aka patina!! Haha anyways I've already begun the process of wiping down the areas with acetone and A LOT of elbow grease I have managed to get about a square foot per hour. The details of the truck are V8 with a 3 on the tree. Factory medium olive with a white top. Factory chrome front bumper with gauges. That's about it. The previous owner did install after market a/c kit that works good. This is the most rust free truck that I've ever seen in person. I have under and over and inside this truck and there is not so much as a pinhole of rot. Just some surface rust on the hood. Plans are to change all the fluids, give it a tune up and then make it short and go from there. Here's a few pics.
