This was in my friend's dad's barn. I got it a month ago and here's my progress so far. Tomorrow I'm gonna start putting in a new wood bed. It has a 351e V6 that runs good, but needs some tuning. I'm sure I'll have ?s.

Nice looking truck! It looks pretty solid.

What is that on the B-pillar? It doesn't look like the "Custom" emblem that I am used to seeing.

It's an rv plug-in. The original owner had a camper on the back. I'm keeping the truck as original as possible, and will run the V6 until it dies. I love the original paint, good patina, just surface rust.
