good looking pickup. I have my first truck, a 77 im building as well (a lil more in depth) Ive put a 5.9 cummins/ 5 speed in it 10" lift and 42" tall tires 1 ton axles ive completley stripped down everything but the tranny and rebuilt, repainted or replaced. Its been 5 years in the making and havent touched it in 4 until the first of this month now i cant stop. i am looking for a single cab 3/4 ton or 1 ton 4wd cab 73-87 if any body knows of one (with title)

If you need any help or get stuck PM me at one time between my brother and I we had 17 of them

One hint- 1/2" 9/16" and 5/8" wrench you can almost tear the truck down completly and they will 20 dollar bill you to death.

Now your screen name makes since. I actually ran into a 3/4 ton 4wd the other day. Parts truck I will see if the guy still has it and has the title

Looking cheap but will pay accordingly depending on the shape of cab. Would prefer a 73-79 cab / pick up. I come across some from time to time. Haven't been lookin very seriously in the past couple years

Cool I'd appreciate it. I'm sure there's plenty if people who don't get the name. Looks real funny on the powerstroke forum.

Oops sorry says no title

Here is a couple of pics from our truck this tread inspired. We were gonna repaint but after a lil elbow grease and some 3M rubbing compound we are getting most of the oxidation to come off and the paint to shine, so gonna do the whole truck and just spend cash on new parts of the inside of the cab for now. You can see the before and after on the hood.

I made the mistake of letting him pull off the hood to wash and clean the under side. After he washed and waxed the underisde of the hood it shined like new so now he wants to clean the entire engine compartment. Lord help me please what have I started.
