At it again...

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
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 love the look of those years of pickups, but I'm a GM man myself.
Looks like a good deal. Any more you can't by $hit for $200.

Between rain storms.......
I got some stuff done
Hopefully a pressure wash today...not the kind that falls out of the sky either
Then it's a roll or 2 of duct tape...a day of eating Black beauty blasting media...
and a couple of coats of implement paint...after I get the box finished up
Man this sounds like alot of work
