Backroad, truck hunting pics

[Jake]

Another view for you Norm,
You want me to load it up and meet you at the border?
LOL

Ha! Ha!, She's a beauty! Most certainly an '82. I had a long bed, we couldn't get the 360 in CA.
They were about $14,000 new, it's worth every penny...= )

[Sphere]

That brings back some memories

Back in the mid 80's I had a 70' J2000 with a 360 and a 3 speed. 2 3/4" pipe through hooker headers and Thrush turbo mufflers (neighbors hated me ;-) Had a Dana 44f limited slip up front, and a Dana 60 with a locker in the rear. The bed had been replaced with a big stake body.

That truck was next to unstoppable.

I'll dig around when I have time. I have a picture somewhere of me STANDING in front of the bench seat with my hands on the wheel, and my feet on the ground through the big rust hole =-)

Great truck. Wish I still had it... well, until I got the the gas pump anyway...

Jake, you have some great looking trucks! I think I've seen pics of your orange truck on the registry.

Here are some trucks I've come across while truck hunting, all in Montana.

Thanks for the kind words dirtrider,
The orange truck belongs to some one else now and I think he registered it.
Thanks for sharing the cool pictures of the trucks you ran into in your travels.

Some I found on the internet, but most were found while exploring on my dirt bike.

This site limits 3 pictures per post. Is this for everyone or only for noobs?

Some guy had a truck for sale on Craigslist

This was the parts truck . I am afraid I have lost track of the the original add and contact imformation. The truck was not advertised in the Vancouver Craigslist . I have tried to down load the craigslist search engine that will search all of Craigslists sites . The engine usually crashes or is not compatable or needs additional softwear . A BC wide search of craigslist would be great . Or a washington wide one for that matter.
Kind of bogged down here with other work . Nada done on the Carryall in the last 4 weeks .

take care

Hi All,

I have some other views and higher resolution if anyone wants copies.

[splummer]

very nice. are you the proud owner now? steve from western maine

[rxinhed]

Steve, no...the wife would not stand for it. I'd personally rather have the 1/2-track that I posted some time ago, closer to home and more unique.

Cheers
