Well after all the building and rebuilding we got the 93 to do the job. I just didn't care for the handling part of it. We bought a 77 C20 Camper Special it pulls and handles the trailer like its not there. It has a 454 with TH400. Great combo. The truck has been in storage for 20+ years. NO rust it was bought in Cal. in 77 and Z barted there. The original owner used it to tow campers from IN. to New York and to Cal. It has 99788 miles on it. I'm loosing the 16.5 tires and going with 16" just for availability. We plan on keeping the 77 just for the camper and storing it in the shop when not in use.Charlie

Yes it even came with a spare hood as this one got bent from someone closing it when hinges needed oil. I leaned the new hood against a cabinet in the shop and Chris told me it was to big for her truck. (Yes her truck) So I got out the tape and showed her it is right almost 6' across. Just needs paint.Charlie

I wore a camouflage T-shirt once. The response in the pub was "Oooh, it's a floating head!" .
