This truck I bought was parked in '98 due to a siezed caliper and bearings after a serious run-in with a cross ditch at about 35mph. I bought it with the bearings and front end rebuilt, but the brakes did not work so I replaced them.

Well, for the first time in nine years, this truck has fired up and been driven.

Still needs some work, but at least its getting closer to being insured.

 

Looks like you'll have a mean truck on your hands...been working on mine this weekend too. Previous owner let it sit the last couple of years and very little use before that. Always feels good to get something going again.

I can't wait to get the rear brakes done so I can do a little exploring with it, find out what it can do.

Tuesday is the day the rest of the work gets done, because I'm taking it to a shop to get checked out.
