The '61 shorty I snagged from from Gordo in Washington state ( last Sept.) was finally loaded last night and on it's way to Texas. Will do a thread on it once it gets here.Chris.

No,pictures of the same truck when Gordo bought it from a local junkyard about 5-6 yrs ago. He did some light cosmetic body filler in some areas and ended up grey primering the whole truck.

The truck has the original 170/column 3spd. Tempted to drop in a 318poly/435 but my better sense tells me to keep it as original as I hope it is and just restore it.The 1st year "dart" is pretty neat...in my humble opinion. Chris.
