Glad to hear your daughter is ok.

That's too bad about Drippy, I am pretty sure the cab was swapped at some point already, so this will make probably the third cab and who knows what else. That truck has had a rough life. Good luck on the rebuild, but I have to ask if it wouldn't be easier to find another truck and start from there?

Glad to hear your daughter is alright Dan...
I have to agree with Jack, there are a couple cruisers that popped up in Carson, one ain't bad the other is a rust bucket at $1800 but if you are up for some welding it could be, what looks like, a nice truck.

maybe jack but we have another rolling chassi so it wont be to bad just swappin parts n addin some stuff like an ifs steering box new doors locker springs n things like that and maybe a rebuilt buick 231.been gonna do that stuff anyway so its just commin alittle sooner than planned. if it wasnt for the fact that drippy is old iron i think it woulda been alot worse that truck prolly saved my Daughters but in more ways than one
