New from MO
« on: October 10, 2014, 10:24:39 am »
I have a 79 full ton with a dump bed.  I am here to seek out advice when needed and offer it if possible. Since buying this truck I have developed a real appreciation for it.  As far as a "car/truck guy"  I have always been more of a Jeep guy.

It was sitting out in a field, the guy wanted $800, I couldn't resist.  I have put maybe another $400.00 into and it runs like a champ.

My truck has a 350,  3 speed plus low, 4X4.

Howdy from Kansas!

Great find. I also like the Allis Chalmer in the background.

Thanks for the welcomes.  It is definitely getting used, mostly hauling wood and gravel and a Jeep with a broken axle shaft.
