"sm70- why not Duesenberg?" (sm70-whynotduesenberg)
03/02/2015 at 20:30 • Filed to: None

Driven by students, that is. A custom late 60's/early 70's Bronco, an early-60's base Falcon sedan, a 60's Mustang notchback that I see sometimes, and this, perhaps the most Nebraska vehicle ever to Nebraska. In a good way.

Part of me would love to see this truck restored, but most of me likes it and wants it to stay like this.

Kinja'd!!!

I might be stealing your engine also. I've always wanted a 4.2 V8 swap.

I wouldn't restore it. It's got a hell of a lot of character just the way it is.

Who cares about your body? I'm telling you no.

jkm7680 > sm70- why not Duesenberg?
03/02/2015 at 20:41

Now it's the other way around. My mind is telling me yes, and my body is also telling me yes.

I have placed in my notes that you have given the response "no."

jkm7680 > sm70- why not Duesenberg?
03/02/2015 at 21:23

Funny thing is, my passenger seat heater is slightly slower than the drivers side one so that would actually be nice.

That's a loaded up one too - chrome along the rocker, cool built-in tool box in the side of the bed.

You can find restored ones all day. But you can't find original ones that aren't rusted all to hell.
