This looks like a good project truck.

If it starts to rain, they'll tax the splash.
If you want to fish, they'll tax the bass.
If you plant a yard, they'll tax the grass.
If you don't play nice, they'll fine your *$#!

Because it fits the frame oh so well, provides forged aluminum A-arms, and monster brakes. A place called Flat-out Engineering makes a kit to install Corvette IFS or IRS in an Effie. The frame widths are the same as a Slick. I am betting the resale value would be higher than if it had a "Volare'".[/list][/code]

If you drove a Ford, you wouldn't need a good wrench!

One thing, spooks me a bit about that truck is some pics it has a '62 valence and grille, some pics a '61 valence and grille. Wonder if they are the same truck.
Think I would pick the '61 stuff given a choice, but there ain't any choice . Or explanation. Or diddly.

You'd park it in your bedroom?
Me too.
