An old buddy from high school recently finished a six year resto of what was once his dad's truck, and has been in the family since new. He stopped by the Challenge, and although I had seen pix before, I had no idea how amazing the thing actually was. Ben was always a gearhead, but until this project he had never done a full resto, or even anything much beyond wrench turning. For a first effort, I'd say he did alright.
Here's his awesome build log. Worth a look if you like the '60s iron.

Very cool. Trucks like that are amazingly rare.
Wow, that's one nice Sweptline! The 426 Wedge ones are pretty rare. Nice that it still has the original 426 Wedge air cleaner too.
Nicely done - I saw that tooling around the pits. Looked and sounded great.
I bet it'll make 'em erk.
Gotta get busy on my 66 Cheby. The same one Ive had since high school.
love those old dodges
OH YEAH! Saw it at the challenge. That was a awesome truck. Wanted to get a closer look just never got the Chance.
Very nice! Always good to see old tin back on the road.
