New Old Truck work started

[Nyboy]

I have been missing having a pick up. I purchased a El Camino which turned out to be christine. last night a friend and I went to look at a restored 1957 Dodge pick up was love at first sight. Struck a deal with the owner gave deposit, going to bring truck home sometime this week. Not the truck I wanted for hauling manure, but figured my nephews ford 150 would handle that. This might now become favorite Craig list find LOL

Wow, Nyboy, I can see you cruising around in your 57 Dodge pick up! That will be a blast. Completely restored? What color? (for the picture in my head)

Maybe I should post my truck here. I'm about to put my 1993 3/4 ton Dodge Cummins up for sale. It's been garaged for 15 years. I put about 300 miles on it every year hauling hay, and it has nearly 118,000 miles on it---very low for a diesel engine. It is ready to haul bumper hitch (w/swaybars) and gooseneck, and has almost no rust. It is silver with dark blue trim.
Anybody that lives close...send me a PM bc I'm ready to sell NOW and I need a small compact car.
I have a 2nd truck, 2007 full ton Cummins, with the works.

LOL truck is older then me. I learned the hard way when I went to sell a pick up about rust, road salt and trucks.

 

[seedcorn]

Older than you? Do I feel old......

seedcorn, I will GET your pictures. PLEASE wait until this weekend. Then, if you are interested, PM me. I'd be more than happy to sell this truck to a forum friend.
