The newest beater.

[Not A Duster]

The old brown turd GMC conversion van is getting to be on it's last legs. After two years of service, we have decided we got our $500 worth out of it and are putting it to sleep.

Next up is this '85 Dodge truck. We've got a little more money in this one, so I'm thinking we may take better care of it than the last couple beaters we have owned. The 318/auto are a bit tired, but still run well, and the truck belonged to a long-haul semi driver, who kept up safety items like brakes, steering and glass.

A little TLC, and this one might be worth keeping around for a bit longer...

Gonna look for a grille as soon as I get a day off.

Yeah - only been the past couple years that we haven't had a truck around the yard.

The van was cheap - gonna miss the bed in the back of it...provided shelter on more than one festival gig where I ended up sleeping on site....

repacing? sounds like an upgrade. Beautiful starlight view vs. some g.m. crap roof

Heh...I think if it sees any kind of paint, it might be some black primer to keep the rust from spreading.
