Lots of trucks around here like that, rust free good runners with minor body damage, trashed interiors for around a grand. I feel sorry for you guys up north. The rear wheel well openings on my 84 are just starting to show a little rust coming thru. Otherwise no rust. 84 D150 440/727 79 /6 swb D150 1964 A100 window van. Just because it has spark plug tubes doesn't mean it's a Hemi. If ya haven't been there, ya just wouldn't understand.

Good score ...already got the newer mirrors, can't remember when all the changes were, thinking '98, you may be in luck. That would be a good score here in the land o sunshine ...

I had that same thought from the looks, but if that was really the case, you would know. Trust me. It takes gasoline to interest me.

The zero rust factor is a BIG motivator. Hope you dipped the whole thing in oil already. What happened with the black truck swap thing?

After seeing that i brought it home and thought about it for a while.. Got to looking on cl for a frame.. Found the texas truck.. Decided if im gonna do all this work it may as well be on something with no rust to start. Sold most of the big parts i had collected for the black truck to fund the paint and body work stuff.. The rest is fairly simple.. Gonna finish the strip down this weekend and start in on some body work.. Thats my least favorite part of this whole deal.. On another note. Got the 300 pulled out of storage. Carb rebuilt, new brakes on order.. Found low compression on 2 cyl which is a bummer but its gonna run for the season the way it is..
