FOUND my Dad's truck My dads 1978 Chevrolet Pickup Ontario

OK guys a bit more of an update.

I finally got to see the truck and it is far from what it was. It's been gutted and rebuilt strictly for pulling. Runs on race gas only, different axels, single seat and probably a bunch of other things.

The owner was a very decent guy. He knew exactly were I was coming from and agreed to work with me on making it happen.

Something I didn't anticipate was when he took me into his basement he showed me a bunch of trophies the truck won in pulling in the state that he got it from my dad. Pretty cool there must have been 20-30, my camara died otherwise I would share that with you guys.

So right now neither of us are in a rush and agreed that maybe a transaction will take place in the summer. As much as I want it I'm on the fence a bit because it will require a lot of money and time to even get it on the road let alone make it shine.

The name Wasted Wages is very suiting for this truck.
