No I like it all shiny. Besides I might screw it up.

Here is a video of it's first drive under its own power in more than a decade! I couldn't get the video to post so here is a link to it.

Congratulations, looks like it went smoothly.
Always good when it makes it back to where it started with no drama!

I just put a new alternator in it and am just about to list it for sale. I just had a guy contact me to see if I was selling it as he saw my video on Youtube of the restoration. Boy that was fast!

Here are a couple pics I took today for the for sale posting. It really did turn out very nice. Someone will be getting a great truck and I have the satisfaction of knowing it will see many more years on the road and not scrapped to make paperclips!!

Just put it up for sale in Ebay starting at $6500 with no reserve and a BIN price of $10,000. Wish me luck!

I'll be watching this seeing what it will bring. Hopefully you'll get close to the BIN price as I hope to get 12-15k for my 66' once I get the resto done.
