Re: Preservation not restoration Martino build

Ok so I will chime in a again to this thread since I have the whole story. Ms Martino had the truck in the garage for years since her husband died and wanted to get it back on the road well the local garage kind of laughed at her and and said to junk it. So she did and the local tow guy hung a forsake sign on it. As we all know a 1 ton with this driveline isn't a highly sought after truck to drive so it sat and sat I bough it and sold the buddies that it had figuring it would help keep my coat down. Was in a bit of a money crunch then. The papers were a mess so I spent the time through NY to get that fixed and got it running driving and in the road. Had to sell it to get caught up on bills. Me and Steve kept in touch and still do and now it's Here. I have 1 original hubcaps off the truck kept it figuring steve wouldn't put the wheels on. I truely regret selling that truck. All it needs is a 4.10 gear swap and it would be a great runner.
