Truck build

I'm not sure...it got pretty good mileage before. It's an 18 gallon tank if I remember correctly. I put a new tank and sending unit in a while ago but I did let it sit for too long. I gotta sell a couple guns to afford the new battery but my prediction is it'll start right up. I've never paid much attention to mpg. I drove up to fort Stewart Ga, hunted, and back and I think it was right at a tank of fuel...I had a half tank and filled up before I left to come home. According to interwebs from the factory the inline 6 was 15-19 mpg
 
I'm staying pretty conservative on tire size and tread and the drivetrain is same as from the factory minus a gear reduction box in-between the transmission and transfer case.....Screenshot_20230406-135705~2.png
 
Bff's sons ride....this a rare 1. True snow fighter edition from the factory. He went fancy with 4links suspension and coilovers. Healthy 460 v8

Everybody thought dodge was being so "original" with recent toolboxes built into the bed....that there bed toolbox fron1979

I can push mine pretty fast down the driveway if I needed to.
I've never owned a car. I almost bought a turbo merkur and kick myself all the time for not getting it.

I'll need something to put my "big" small block 408 into someday and my wife wants a car. I always liked falcon or a galaxy.... I'll find something for a deal someday
 
Yeah I'm real jelly of them and the fleet of 70s they have accumulated. I need some acreage so I can store stuff cause I'm outta room as it is. I have a 1948 ford 8n tractor down at my grandma's I need to go get but I don't have anywhere to put it. I always keep an eye out for the older vehicles rotting away that maybe I can get for a song but they getting rare where I live.... If I went and drove central Florida back roads with a trailer and 3k I could have an old 1 in a day or 2
 
I’ll follow along. Set up a video camera and post it on YouTube. Restoration videos are hot right now.

I like old car and truck restoration. I’ve done a couple. This is my 65 I bought when I was in high school.
