Well it finally happend. I am so stoked. I bought a pig.
It's a 1976 with 77000 original miles on it. It was used as strictly a hunting truck for the last 10+ years. It only drove from the farm house to the field and back ( a little twist on the old "little old lady only drove it to church and back on sundays"
)
This thing is 100% stock. It has had no modifications done to it by man. Now by nature is a different thing. It has the typical rust in the front lower fenders, rockers, and minor in the rear sil, and the driver side body mount has rust. It needs a new 2F hood. The PO was driving down the HWY when the latch let loose and the hood fliped up and hit the roof line. So now it has a huge crease in it.
I am going to take off the asian carb and send it out to be rebuilt and tuned to the high altitued here in CO. I need to fix a leak in the rear diff cover, change all the fluds, spark plugs. It needs new tires, but it has the orginal rims and hub caps. Needs a new windshield, and the back window doesnt work right now. The head linner is ripped out and seats are cracked.
Now for the good stuff. It is still completly smogged so I dont have to hunt for all that crap to get emissions done. It still has all the chrome peices. Like around the drip rail on the roof, on the inside of the doors holding the near mint mat down. It still has the original radio and tool kit. Bag, wrenches, tools, and bottle jack with the crank. It also came with 2 sets of original TEQ keys (very cool). Like I said before there are only 77000 miles on it. And the kicker.......I only paid $1100 for it.
