My father got this truck over a year ago… and we decided for me to buy it from him.. my first idea was to do a frame up restoration… but after talking to a lot of friends we all agree that it was better to keep it like it is… still have the original paint job, original motor and tranny. So it was better to just do minor repair thanks to LMC truck I can get the parts that I need and now is my daily rider.. love this truck fun to drive like to go mudding with it.. my plans are to keep as original as possible.. thanks…
