While reviewing the previous owner's records, I discovered the original build sheet for the truck, which details the initial work done. Since we've taken ownership, we've added approximately 270 miles. You can find a summary of the work we've completed, in the June 23rd. post below. It is a beautiful old truck and is a head turner driving it through down town, always draws a crowd pleaser. The photos speak for themselves, clean old truck with modern conveniences, comfortable and enjoyable to drive.

Looking through the original restoration photos I came across these of the truck in the booth getting its clear coat and the post installation of the refinished bright work.
A few more photos of the cab and interior during painting and restoration. It is truly hard to believe how nicely done the cab is without experiencing it. The previous owner did an excellent job in the restoration and revitalization of the truck cabs.
BID: $15,000
A few photos of the engine and engine compartment during and after the restoration. New gas tank and sending unit installed during the restoration process.
BID: $13,550
