It's a sickness that can't be cured! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Last Sunday a friend I haven't seen in a while stops by the house to check out the progress on the new shop,,,,,,,We catch up on all his projects and he tells me about a truck a lady has that has sat for a few years because her husband died. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif

He also tells me she would like to sell it,,,,

I need another project like I need another hole in the head,,,BUT...........I ask the question.

We just got home from a long day on the road,,,,,,,To dumb to take a trailer the first time!

Hey,My wife loves it!,,,,,,,,Frist car to go in the new shop! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gifHRP

The truck still has the motor is no longer with the truck but the original tranny and rear end is in it,,,,I may use a 283 that I already have and make or buy an adapter,,,,,,,,,

In the past someone had changed it over to juice brakes!

I really don't know about the gas tank,,,,,I'm kinda tall and It is located under the seat,,,,,,, http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gifHRP

Nice little 32 pickup.

Just what you need http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

You will have that big ole shop full of 32's if you keep this up........ (nothing wrong with that either)

The shop looks great......wish I had another one.
May see you Thursday or Friday......

COOL TRUCK !! Wish something as NICE as that could be found over here .. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif
BTW .. In my opinion .. Go find a set of `35 Wires . Paint em`Black ( No trim-rings ) , And use Firestone 5,25 or 5,50 / "16 in front .. 7.00 / "16 in back. Slam it ( "2 Suspension-travel ) , and it will look "understaitment-awesome" ....

Thanks Klazurfer,The truck looks a lot better now!

Here in the states a 32 ford truck is easier to find than the kelseys,,,,,,at least at a reasonable price!

Oddly enough it does have 16"rims on the front and 17" on the rear.

Cool find and even cooler if the boss likes it.
If you haven't put a sealer on that garage floor, do it now, you won't regret it. 10 times easier to sweep and it helps a bunch keeping the dust down
