Title: Picked Up Another Stepside Today
Post by: 69byrd on June 13, 2010, 09:17:43 pm
I picked up another stepside, this one is a 82 model.  I actually picked it up for a friend, he traded an old car that he had for it.  It has a 350/700r combo and it runs real strong.  The old truck needs a little TLC as the previous owners neglected it some but he will get it back in good shape.  Well here are a few pics.  This is when we stopped to eat after we picked it up.  Vile I took the visor off right there in the parking lot ;D

lol. When I saw the visor I threw up a little. There is great potential in that truck, and that hood looks cool.

I can understand why that visor turned you against them.  That is the most hideous thing I have ever seen!!!

...I like the visor myself....could be because my dad's '85 cab-over Freightliner had a cab visor, and the cab-over he had a bit before had stainless windshield visors, but to me they just look like they belong there. I kinda prefer the straight visors, but that one is unique..
