Had a '71 521, a '73 620, a '76 720, followed by a '76 HardBody.
Great trucks!
They had nearly 3/4 ton hauling capacity, that I used to the fullest.
Still have the 620, but a idiot woman came out of a parking lot and T-boned it.
Did a lot of work to it, and am looking for a replacement box (if anyone sees one around).
Most of the work was to the engine, and drive train, and was about to start on a big brake conversion when it was hit.
Sitting in my driveway at the moment.
Has just a little done to the engine, just enough to blow off every modern pickup I ever come up against, either stop-light, or open highway.
Those are Vance & Hines drag bike carbs .
Also has a 264 cam, oversize SS valves, full custom SS exhaust, just to mention a few.
I am at this point in my life, that I don’t know if I will be buying to many guns in my future.
It’s a money issue, it doesn’t come easy to just have money flowing in that is surplus.
And guns have gone up a lot in price. If I buy I new gun, it’s because I sold one.
I have scratched most of my itches in categories. Only thing really missing is a real good deer rifle setup, but I have been content to borrow one from my BIL. But I will eventually make one mine, just not settled on what I plan on buying.
With this economy and lack of raises I can’t justify it.
