Message: [QUOTE="yz250-effer, post: 168775, member: 20448"] [b]I think I have the oldest ( so far ) . . .[/b] AND it does take two hands to drive. A 61 apache 1/2 ton ,longbed stepside. But it has been slightly modernized with a 68' 327, and matching turbo 400 speed automatic. I also put a 338 in the rear end so it would actually do 75 mph. without hitting 4000 rpm. Only 2 complaints - the brakes suck ( all drum ) and no power steering. I know I could up-grade, but heck, why have an old truck if you are going to change it into a new one? I think it will do about 130 with the corvette engine and the gearing changes, but since it handles like a bus, you won't catch me trying anything over 90.:) [/QUOTE]
