Hello everyone. I figured I might as well join beings I keep ending up back at this site checking out everyone's stuff. I have a project going right now that is getting some special treatment. It's a 78 Scottsdale. My dad dropped it off at my place and handed me the keys. Now I always knew it would be mine some day beings I was born in it ( snow storm and I couldn't wait to come out) but I didn't think it was coming that soon. I pulled it out of the shed Las year and the fuel pump was spraying everywhere. So I got it in my shop and one thing lead to another and by the end of the night I was ready to pull the motor. As it sits now I am starting to put it back together. My dad had the body done about 20 years ago but never touched anything else.

Sharp looking truck. And it's a MN truck that hasn't rusted away? Cool story to go along with it.
