    The restoration is complete! New tank of gas, and headed out for a drive to test her out. Runs like a champ! Brakes are a little soft but pump up OK, steering is tight, clutch feels great, amazing throttle response, all the gauges work except the speedo, lights work, UNBELIEVABLE! Just a great running original old truck. Too much fun... Pulled it in the garage tonight so I took a few more pictures to share.

    Awesome get. I think a couple of inches out of the ride height would look great.

    Have you done a Google street view at the address on the side, be neat if the old building is still there. Maybe someone even has an old picture of the place.
