How it started when the truck was passed on to me from my parents.

I've done all the work myself. I've been keeping it original. Except for paint and interior colors. The truck was born with air con, power steering, heat, and radio. It still has all that but will be getting disc brakes up front and a power brake booster.

Wow that looks amazing, hope mine can get there one day. Thanks
