They call me Spuds
So I finally got to play with my '71 today and have to say it's been VERY well kept. It has the usual dings from being a pickup and a bit of a wrinkle in the rear of the right bed side. Shows 29k but I think it's 129k (I seriously doubt it's anymore than that). 302, either the C4 or FMX, PS, PB, factory (pretty sure) AM radio, only tears in the seat are where the driver sits, ALL the trim (cab, windshield, bed, tail lights, rocker/lower bed), grille is near perfect. Also has a brand new y-pipe back exhaust with a FM 50 Series (hey, it was there when I got the truck and I don't plan to screw with it for the fact of it sounds good and it's quite when cruising)...
In cab tank is gone, and one has been put under the bed between the rails (goes from about mid cab to the front of the rear spring perch, don't think its factory for the year), the filler hole has been shaved (needs redone but I like that it has been), mirrors have been replaced with the little 3" ones, I like their style but can't find a good place to put them.
No cancer in the floors, bed, cab corners, NOTHING. Has the original washer fluid tank and the pump still works. The PS pump has the finned cooler right off the pump.
Needs a little work, but nothing I can't handle will make a great DD for now and have plans for some warming over...
