Thanks Randy...That was the truck that started my love for the dent,I learned a great deal from it...being a daily driver and my only vehicle at the time when i got it in,the truck was redone over weekends and days off from work in all honesty..it had to be ready to go come Monday mornings.The engine was sold several yrs ago and resides in another vehicle today..Ohio Winters and road salt took care of the rest of it unfortunatly even with care,I had to pull it off the road in 2000,and parted it out.....that was a sad day for me......

Sweet truck BuzzGun! Looks like a hell of a lot of work went into it. The 70's must have been a great time :D

Thanks Mike.....Definately alot of work and effort,it was a basket case when i first got it..AHH Yes Shades of the 70's..The evolution of Rock n Roll...Gas prices still under a buck a gallon along with regular leaded gasoline..EPA along with Government started clamping down on the auto makers for more efficient vehicles..this was the intriduction Generation to the way vehicles have become today...but trucks were still exempt from the mandates....Alot of history from the 70's

People always ask me why i like the 70's (cars and trucks) so much.

They were modern enough to be comfy and easy to drive (power steering and brakes, front discs, shoulder belts, etc) but were still easy to fix and somewhat stylish....

IMO The 60's & 70's Produced some of the BEST rides ever!!

That first one is crazy...I see it at all the TGW events, some of the charity mud bogs and trucks pulls. $15k for a turn key Mega truck isn't too shabby at all in my book.

That Bronco wouldn't be too bad either for $5-750 less, cut fenders...doesn't run well...could be a great project. Could be a good match to your 250, Mark.

If I had the room, I'd probably build a Bronco to match the truck. The pair would be awesome at a show.
But I have nooooo room, already have 4 vehicles and 2 boats .
