LUV: 1975 Street
Name: Jordan
Location: Santa cruz,
CA USA
Forum Name: jsfucttruck
Notes: 75 2wd LUV, all original except for paint. 1.8 original motor, 4 spd. Drum brakes seem to be the only downfall to the truck. I picked it up for $450 with new tags. Plans in the future include small block, th350, 10 bolt rear narrowed. Hopefully be able to do the Hooker conversion kit for the truck, and a disc brake conversion. I like the color sceme so I'll stick with it. Any Q's or answers please email me.
Soon to be Luv'n it,
