(Avatar is good!) Used to drive one of those back on the farm, but it was 1 ton 4x4, and carried a feed bunk, and a welder. It was one tuff truck! Yours looks much nicer.
thanks guys! i said junker because i'm thinking about changing the name from smuggled goods to junker. I think i'm going to use the front end from one of my parts volvos for the tool box in the back, have the hood open up to access my gas tanks and air ride system (if i do it). Even make the head lights usable for working at night or blinding a jerk that comes up behind me in traffic with their brights on . I gave you guys a little preview of my new projects in that last picture, just been to busy to post all the pics up. I havn't decided which one to build into my rod yet. I'm torn between the black 59 with zero rust and the one in my avatar which is a 64. the rust looks mean but i hate to waste a perfect body like that 59. I guess i could restore the 59 with parts from the other two. Shoot, i don't know....on the plus side, my friend and I got the red one running in about three hours worth of work (taking our time), it leaks oil and water like crazy but not bad for sitting for four years. Sounds hecka cool, like an old tractor or something.
