At it again...
« on: June 13, 2010, 06:40:09 AM »
I have needed a dump truck for a few years now...
I'm just such a fan of the 67-72's So I've been hard core looking for a mate for my 71...
After the scrap/side swipe fiasco I decided that I had to find one period...Problem was/is no cash
Last week I was looking for dump truck parts and ran across an add for a 69 Pto 4 speed...for a c-note...
I emailed the guy and asked what about the whole truck...I went and looked at it and stuck a deal ;D
I brought this home for 200 bux :P
Hoist works good, tranny shifts smooth, no broken springs, 350's gone...cab and front clip are junk...hood is clean and rust free...

I know you aint gonna but its worth that and more just in scrap.
Your mission isn't to dive feet first into hell, but to make sure its crowded when you get there.
