'67. And it's a step side - I'd prefer a fleetside. Sweet little truck though.

Well, here's the deal:
1.) I don't want or need an extended cab anymore.
2.) I don't want or need 4wd anymore.
3.) I want a truck I love, not like.
4.) I've always liked older cars and trucks and would love to have one similar to those above.
5.) I can buy one similar to the above in good shape with a decent powerplant for around $10k and drive it as-is until I'm ready to have a 6.0 or LS? dropped in it.

I am with the DON'T DO IT side.
Yeah, it would definitely have to have A/C and hopefully disc brakes. The suspension can always be improved if need be. New weather stripping to make it quieter if need be. Some sound-deadening material in the cab if need be. I'm ready for another project and I think it would be fun. I had a 64 Rambler American I was going to stuff a 390 in years ago but never had the money. I had a Plymouth Valiant Scamp I was going to "fix up" and never had the money to. I might get sick of an older truck in 5 years - who knows. It's just something I want to do.

AC can be installed. Comfort can be obtained.
