This truck took very little to restore since it is a 34,000 original miles truck that has been kept inside all its life. Because it had a few rips in the seat and the body had some scratches we gave it what you would call a restoration, just to make it look really nice. The new paint and upholstery look great. This is a southern truck that has never had rust. The 302 engine has a 289 intake and mated to an AOD trans, and a 9” rear. This is a very cool truck and gets lots of looks. It would make a good cruiser or (I hate to say it but) a good shop truck. The front bumper is out getting powder coated. . I would trade up or even for a later model pick up that I can use for my business. I just can't get myself to use this classic for work
