The story

Bought from and older gentleman in Florida. He didn't know much about it, which leaves me with some questions. I suspect that It had a "frame on" resto around 6 years ago. I think the motor was rebuilt, carpet installed, oil pressure gauge, temp gauge, paint job on the exterior, rust protection on the frame, new flow-masters, new tank, and some new rubber here and there. · 78custombronco
