  • I purchased this one this past October.. Had it shipped home to Florida from Oklahoma. Original paint, and overall untouched and never messed with. 259 V8 with auto trans.

    It's been a fun weekend project that's almost ready to hit the road. Full brake system rebuild, typical engine stuff (water and fuel pump rebuild, distributor and carb rebuild, tune up stuff, belts and hoses, valve adjustment, etc). So far it's also gotten NOS bumpers and taillight assemblies, new tailgate and door seals, new carpeting front and rear, rebuilt/reupholstered front seat, etc etc etc.. Currently spray dying the original door panels (nice shape, just faded) and installing new windlace to finish off the interior.

    A few more things to cross off the punch-out list, but it's getting close to hitting the pavement.
