Description This was the old family truck, it has many miles on it. I would like to rebuild it one day, but I'm not sure it'll work anymore. We painted the flames on during High School.

Me too, we loved it.  My brother is still hopeful that one day he will do it.  Right now he's working on his half track though.

Well, it's had to have a new engine twice already. The floor is almost rusted through. But it's down there in hopes that one day my brother and I will get time to get on it.

Oh, lots of things. The engine needs to be replaced I believe. Hasn't been started in like....10 years or more. My brothers have rebuilt military trucks, so I doubt they would have too much trouble with it though.

Oh cool. Well it's a matter of work and expense then. I also have a 77 Dodge Power Wagon that works good, but needs some work...hopefully I can get that looking and running well.

They call it a "crew cab." This one looks like a GMC C35.
