DatDoug Posted December 27, 2011 Report Share Posted December 27, 2011 Picked this bucket up tonite up in Poulsbo. We were able to start it up & drive it onto the trailer. Pretty str8 & clean. Has a rusted out drivers side floor but thats the only spot. Needs a good thoro cleaning. Plans are to just get it road ready for my D.D. this winter. Its a 79 so has the front discs, Elec. ignition & a 5 speed :cool: Pics Bitches :fu: Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted December 27, 2011 Report Share Posted December 27, 2011 I believe the brown dash was quite rare and only available on the '79. Also the only year to have a 4.11 rear end. Nice. Quote Link to comment

DatDoug Posted December 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2011 Very nice score! How much did you pick it up for? I paid $400 for it. Needs a new drivers floor. brakes need to be gone thru. Pulled the fuel filter & it was packed with a rust-colored silt :o So prolly have to drain & flush the tank. Quote Link to comment

jastrunk97 Posted December 29, 2011 Report Share Posted December 29, 2011 how long was it sitting there? Quote Link to comment
DatDoug Posted December 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2011 how long was it sitting there? Only a couple of years. Good news is gas is clear from the tank. Truck started rite up after I adj. valves, changed oil, new fuel filter, fixed leaking heater hose, gapped plugs & charged battery. Now Ive got to do the front brakes, fix the big hole in the floor, Put on the Weber, Exhaust & wiper blades. Quote Link to comment
