Here's a picture of My Dodge truck (for MOPARCOWBOY). I figured I'd practice inserting a picture, I'll have to look for more later. This truck is mostly original with a flat six. It runs and drives. I did the brakes, clutch,radiator,ignition ,carb, and got it running. Someone did a paintjob on her. Not too much rust. A bear to drive with manual steering and 12" of play in the gearbox.The three on the tree linkage feels like a streched out rubberband, but it's amazing how you can adjust over time. I did the stock brakes over (everything) and this thing really stops with it's large drums. I fell into this truck, I actually bought it for someone else not realizing he was looking for a specific year, now I don't want to give it up. Gets about 22 smiles to the gallon, thats what it's a'll about. New tires are from my daughters 84 Blazer, she will never miss them.

Wow! That is a looker. 58 is the year Dodge got back in the game for good looking trucks! (IMHO) We definitely need more pics of that.
 
Yea, like Sam said, More pics. Nothin like old-school for a daily. With these kind vehicles, you look forward to drivin it and make excuses to go for a ride. That's the only way I'll have it----AMERICANA BABY!!!!

very nice clean looking truck would really like more pictures of it though. I recently just bought the same truck but as a rolling chassis ill pictures of mine up soon. are you gonna restore it to factory specs or will you be changing anything on it
 
More pictures

I swear I will try to take and post more pics. This pic shows the truck at it's best. It has some rust, is mostly original. I have to filled it up Saturday (gas) so I'll try to post some pics at different angles. I'd like to hold on to the truck drive it and maybe do an old applle farm work truck look to it "someday"
 
More pics

Her's some more pictures, it's hard to download pictures when you keep having to look behind you for a swinging frying pan! Anyway, the pictures 21,22,and 23 show a good reason not to foget to remove the battery charger. First time this happen to me. I have this truck around 7 years, it had almost no rust on it when I got it. I hope to catch up and get it protected. Right now the trucj mainly holds our TV antenna
