eh she ain't ugly, just well wornIt's so ugly it's beatiful.
its actually not that loud, but its throaty I'll have a video soon. But I need to replace the alternator soon, the original ones bearings are worn and it squeals real loud once its warmed up lol
Oh yea, you have no idea how fun it is to drive this truck.I mean my ranger was tough, but this is fullsize tough lol it's like driving an unstoppable mud machine he he
They can get stuck too...
A couple years ago they buried a very good sized dozer across the road from our shop over the tracks. They had to bring in a huge end loader to dig it out after the ground dried out.
Oh yea, this truck has gotten tons of "love". I practically grew up in this truck, I remember being 4 years old and riding with my dad plowing out the back roads because PennDot doesn't plow us out usually. And even though it doesn't look perfect, it's come a long way. I actually had to talk my dad into keeping the truck, I made a deal with him that I would do all the work on it to make it road worthy; which included a complete exhaust, complete brake system, re-did alot of rotten wiring, alot of rad support patching, new fuel pump and rebuilt carb, new rims/"new" tires, and for kicks, a eclipse head unit and 4 walmart quality speakers...not that you can hear it over the exhaust. I'll eventually sand it all down and paint it rattle can black, just so it's one solid color, but for now, it'll do lol. And I'll be taking this baby mudding with some friends pretty soon, I have a friend with a 81 Chevy with a rebuilt 350, and he's convinced he'll be pulling me out, and I beg to differ...he's got street radials and busted auto hubs, I think I'll be fine
of course the next day my dad drove it and didn't close the hood all the way....so it flew up and bent up the right hood hinge, so he's off to the junkyard today to get another lol.
I'll be doing more videos of this truck running and driving/mudding in the future
