So i bought a 1969 truck my junior year of high school, it had a completely rebuilt drivetrain. the body has seen better days, although it doesnt have any large dents, only minor easily fixable dings, it does have a large amount of cancer.the wood bed is in decent shape also I bought most of the new body panels(rockers inner/outer floor panels, and cab supports. the cab corners need some attention along with the passenger side outer fender. a year or so later a rod knock started in the motor, so my cousin led me to a guy who builds circle track cars and i bought a 350 with 65 corvette heads, put on an edelbrock performer intake and edelbrock 600cfm carb. The truck is a custom camper Longhorn edition truck meaning it has the 8' 6" bed. I am not the best at all this but slowly learning. I do not know how to do body work, and am just learning to weld. so idk where the project is going to go hopefully i will get some money out of my mustang and put it towards the body work so i can get it all done and clean. its nothing fast, just a nice around town truck sounds good and can haul alot.

Lots of cancer, but it can be saved! Chop, cut, rebuild! I've always liked the C-Trucks even though I am a ford guy. I am looking for a similar truck to play with......
