Post by: bkcbuilder on December 12, 2009, 06:25:29 pm
Not my creation, but I now own it. Anybody up in the Pacific Northwest know anything about who built this truck. Would love to talk to the owner and ask some questions..... Thanks Brian......oh and Love the forum!

What questions do you have? Part of this form is to help each other out, so if you cant find the builder, then take GOOD pics and post them. How long did the previous owner have it before you got it?

My questions are more of paint codes, engine and trans specifics etc... this is my fourth 73-87, and the only one I haven't done myself. This one was a body-off-frame that from the carfax/registration paper trail took 9 years. It was a change from a 305/manual to a built 350/700R4. One of those deal too good to be true...that actually happened. The sucking economy finally has paid dividends! I bought it from pictures only from a classic lot 2500 miles away after it would not sell on e-bay after 4 times.

Why not buy a LWB stepside?
