My new baby...

After lurking the forums for quite awhile, I finally found one to tow home.
A 1976 J-10...minus the 360 4bl it came with.

Thanks, I've been looking all over for a good candidate. This one originally came from California, so no rust holes. Everything I've found so far is just surface rust!
