Bought vehicle in 1971 (in high school) and my son, Stephen, and I spent a summer rebuilding it from the ground up. New suspension, interior, welded in floor panels to replace rusted ones, did all the painting ourselves! The bed is 34" red oak as is the tailgate insert and the rear bumper. Power brakes were added to slow the truck given the 350 CID Edelbrock equipped motor under the hood.
Purchased by my parents as a Graduation Present in 2002. In 2003 I started attending track days with NASA, during that time I blew up the engine (that was a fun 5hr drive home!), replaced it with a 4.6L 4v, then I replaced the automatic transmission with a 5 speed. In the fall of 2005 I crashed it into a Guard Rail at VIR during testing, over the winter I stripped it down, installed a cage and made it legal for NASA American Iron Road Racing. Since then Ive had 2 3rd places finishes and 1 4th place finish.
