Very straight 50 year old truck. I don't know the history of this truck. I will try to describe this vehicle as best I can from what I know has been done. First, all the suspension, front and rear has been removed, repaired and reassembled. The steering gear box was sent out and rebuilt. King pins have been replaced. The entire brake system is new except for the brake shoes and drums. Lug bolts on the driver's side have been changed to right hand threads to simplify things. All leaf spring packs have been disassembled, cleaned and re-installed with new bushings and shackles. The truck does runs well and drives okay down the road. It does need a front end alignment after all the work done. Just haven't taken it in yet. Exhaust is new from the manifold back, including a Magnaflow muffler. Has a nice throaty sound without being too loud. Carburetor has been rebuilt, could use some fine tuning. Tires are relatively new with 95% tread. Bumpers are missing, and I don't have them. Inside has a newer Pioneer radio installed (it works too!). The seats have been replaced with a pair from an ' 02 Dodge Neon along with the 3 point seat belts from the same vehicle.
