How is the tub?

The 3/4 tub is rough but the cowl in nice, pics are in the build thread.

Would you separate the hard top sides? And ship? Probably way more trouble than it's worth to get them over here. Everything rusts to fast down here

Your 40 looks good, I'm surprised you want to get a different one. But I kinda understand. I see people post up completed 40s that can do 70 or 75 miles an hour across country and it makes me envy them and want to sell mine and go for a more completed one. But

The big push is that my wife just took a job across the country so we will be moving to Michigan, moving both 40's and parts is just not possible. Right now we don't even have a place to live let alone a multicar garage. I can let go of the 78 and spare parts I have aquired, but that leaves me with the 75 and a lot of stuff to repurchase down the line as I fix the truck up. If I cash out of everything I will likely be able to buy a decent truck I can live with for a long time. It is a tough and unexpected situation to be in.

 

[alabamatacomaguy]

Good luck to you. You have a good. 40 and a lot of good parts to offer a new owner.

Bump for good luck and an awesome front bumper!!

Now that is one hell of a REDNECK bumper. I like it.

Still available....

 

[Drew Lawton]

I would buy it off you in a heart beat if I had the money, such a beautiful rig. Might have even seen you driving it a few times.

 

[Drew Lawton]

When do you depart? If its still available and I have an amount closer to what you want and I feel like I wont offend you with my offer then maybe something can be worked out.

 

[kbahus]

Departure day is October 10th, let me know what you come up with. I will never be offended by an offer, I just will say no if it's not enough and I do have little motivation to sell. I just rebuilt the steering center link and put the hard top on today. Doors are coming up next once the paint dries.

Need to figure out the rear spring situation as it's sitting pretty high in the back without the sand bags but I have another set of leafs that the truck will come with.

 

[Drew Lawton]

I will gather everything I can then. Good luck on your travels and its a beautiful rig. Its a shame you have to sell it.

Hello Kev,

This is unlikely, but do you have a title for that truck?

Thanks,

[kbahus]

Yes I have Colorado title for this truck.

Hi Kevin,

Just wondering... Is '75 the cut off year for skipping yearly emissions here? I seriously hate going there every year!
