First, thank you for the post, many thoughts and ideas offered here form experience. I will keep my 71 Chevrolet Custom Camper pickup that I restored forever, its 9 leaf spring rear and and Dana 60 with 411's, and Chevy 350 motor get the job done. Its in the pictures on this site. An old story for those who want to hear it. My uncle bought a 67 Chevrolet pickup new, drove it for 20 years and sold it for $500. He had paid $1800 for it new. those days, trucks were work vehicles, he was a finish carpenter for over 40 years. Today to buy a work truck, start at 30k, look at F350,s or whatever, they will do the job with comfort. Just look at an 05 F-150 front end, got sick when I saw the ALUMINUM A arms, no grease fittings, and what I call the "ATV" front end. Independent Macpherson Struts or other cheap junk. My 98 F-150 4.2 engine bit the dust at 80k, the crank thrust bearing went, (it was a standard) I would stay away from that engine. the only question with an older truck, that I ask myself, is: Is it ECONOMICALLY REBUILDABLE. Good luck with your truck purchase, old trucks are a part of Americana.
