He has been saving up to buy a truck. He just bought this chevy,it is 3/4 ton 4wd with a straight 6 motor and 4 speed trans,He bought it for 3.100 dollers.It was great to see such a proud young man that I had to post it on the site here.Both the boy and his sister are invovled in 4H, I am proud to know them both, He knows I frequent the tractor site,I am trying to get his father and him to join us,They do have a JD backhoe and several riding garden tractors,and lots of stuff that would interest this site, [Reply]   [No Email]

Our farm truck growing up was a '67 3/4 ton Chevy (wood bed floor) with a "three on the tree" and straight six. Learned to drive on that thing. The school driving instructor who was also the football coach never made us farm kids do the supervised driving part of the course (except for one short drive) because he knew we'd all been driving trucks and tractors for years, on road and off.   [Reply]  [No Email]

You could put it in Low, 1st gear, get out and walk around it, get back in while it was idling along. Great truck. Congrats to the young man. Drive safely.   [Reply]  [No Email]

This will slow down the creep of the rust to the outside of the door bottom.   [Reply]  [No Email]

I like those older body styles much better than today's. They looked good and you could fancy them up a little without breaking the bank.   [Reply]  [No Email]

We had a 73, a 74, and an 85 with that body style. I still love those more than any modern pickup. We always had the 350 with a four speed on the floor. It was really marked as a three speed with a low. I haven't seen such a beast since - grandpa always ordered them that way. Never could talk him into air conditioning, either. That boy is proof that some parents are still doing things right. God bless them and that kiddo.   [Reply]  [No Email]
