brand new for uh 2800 and the guy that had it before me bought it from Armstrong Buick in Gladstone For $52 and what year did you buy it I bought it 95 95 okay so set from 69 the the fell that bought it um he passed away and his wife didn't drive and so it's set in the garage so 60 9 to 91 and just sat around so you bought it and what did you have to do to it it was basically brand new when I got it only had ,000 mil on it and I just tore it down and you know redid it had to renew it most of the door panels everything is original it looks original other than that the running gear has all been changed it's got a four link rear end and and then 468 it's built made it a little bit more drivable little more Punch Yeah I love it it's a fun car well sounds like you're keeping it on the road and

Bondville thing myself afterwards it was an original Bondville truck kind of a you know tribute to Bonville I guess so I love it though but and you don't see too many of these old service trucks in working order any longer right I travel around a lot so what was it in this condition primarily when you got it yeah it's pretty much body was this way uh I put a Jim meire front clip in it and then uh rebuilt the rear end it's got an LS1 with the 4l60 in it uh gets on the freeway and uh does about 70 and no problem at all yeah and you could run down the Home Depot and get some Lumber exactly I've done that before hey it's practical and it's a classic it's a win-win situation there do you haul your tools in it uh I mean I got stuff in there you know for long road trips taking it to Bonville before no I don't I don't I don't I don't want to disparage our Northwest too much but it might not be super safe in Portland to be running around that's that's probably true that's probably
