That was it. Not a nice bright orange anymore like it was when new. Project in the future like the swinger is. I spent a whole LOT of seat time over the course of 4 summers on one very similar. Finally got a real job driving truck between my junior and senior year. Made enough $$$ to buy my first car.=) BTW, one of those trucks I just discovered has moved from Sauvies Island to just down the road from me. I took my brother over to look at it and he agreed it absolutely had to be one of the two '63 GMC 2 tons the company had. They still own one and this is the other. Doesn't look near as good as it did in the summer of '65 but it is very complete, original and still in use although a lot of rust issues. I know. not a Dodge but I still have good feelings about those GMC's. =)
Thanks for the kind words on the PW. It's down right now since on the way back from hunting I could feel the clutch hydraulics letting go. I had bought a Lifetime warranty master/slave set for it when I first got it and this is the second replacement, I think. Need to get it back in. Since I had to pull the PB unit off to pull the clutch master I am going to rework the brake system and install the Mico lock I have had on the shelf for several years. Too cold to work on it outside right now so it has just been sitting for the last few days.
