OLE69F100 Finaly home !!!

[OLE69F100]

I just thought I would share that I finally got the old truck home and up to the shop this morning. I wish I could get the pics off my phone that I took real quick before heading to work but I am not smart enough to get that done. She is a little rough but no major rust for a truck that has been sitting in west Texas for the past 20 years. The only major areas I could see was the bottom of the front fenders and the back side of the cab down by the cab corner that look like a mud flap. I will get some pic of it this weekend and post them up on monday (no internet at home just yet). I hope to make this my offical update thread for everything I do. I have already asked many question and will have many more to come. Just had to share with the people that appreciate it the most!!

I know no pics I sux but I have some more bad news I forgot the disc with the pictures today so no pics . I did take out the seat and rubber floor and sucked up about 15lb of dirt out of the cab to find rusty floor pans, kick panels, and cab corners . Also scraped about the same amount of dirt out of the front of the bed to find more rust . I will try and get the pic's up as soon as possible. To all the Okies how is the selection of parts at the pull a part ? I have been looking for a parts truck but nothing I can afford just yet. I think my wife is jealous she keeps asking when I am going to come play with her and my daughter. I keep reminding her that it was her idea to sell my 04 and fix this one up. I don't think she realized the work that was going to have to go into the truck to make it drivable again. I told her I thought it sitting in the driveway brought a cretin class to the joint. All she could say is are you putting it in the shop this weekend? No I have to clean it up before I can put it in the shop. All I get is

SHE IS ALIVE!!!! poured some gas in the carb and cranked and cranked and finally the 390 started . I also removed the home made tool box and headache rack and made it look 10x better, but I did find more rust. The front of the bed is eat up pretty good. I plan on looking at a couple of possible donor trucks this weekend.

[rjewkes]

looks like mostly surface rust on 95% +/_ on that one.

[FLATBEDFORD]

That rust looks familiar. Good luck with it. The truck looks like its been under water with all that dirt.

[OLE69F100]

Not under water but on the wheels in a cotton field with west texas wind filling it up with dirt.

[FLATBEDFORD]

How long was it there?
