Lots of time and money spent on her. A real Labor of Love.
I have the 'New Pickup" itch and I will probably regret it, but I'm gonna sell her.
The Pictures do not do her justice!
I know how hard it is to buy a vehicle on line, so I've tried to explain everything in as much detail as possible. Please ask any questions you need to. You can make an appt to come see her in person.

I've been working on her for 2 years. The only things I haven't gotten done are:Installing passenger visor, Speedometer Cable Adapter (all other guages work. ie: fuel, oil temp & batt) Hooking up blinkers.
I have the clear original 1963 title that matches the Vin# and has been road tested and legal here in Illinois with NO issues.
I can't list it all. I'm sure I've fogotten some of the things I've done to her. The motor was rebuilt by others and I do not know how or whats in it. I just know it runs good & strong and reliable. Has headers throat sound. Mild cam with no issues.
I'm selling her because I have too many toys and ocd- I don't like getting this one dirty.
