Hey I had a pinto in college 2.3 liter. Got pulled over by the police and always out of tickets they *felt bad for me*. So if you are going to college buy an old pos. And soup up the motor. )) Could get that thing up past 88 mph just could never go back in time. Little shaking never hurt the fenders. Never got laid in the thing i wonder why? So jimmie where were you conceived a dodge truck. Joey? A chev... Carl? a pos pinto...

    You said you wanted suggestions.

    You can’t use 🦆 tape FOR EVERYTHING !!
    Paint the grill and bumper FLAT white.
    Don’t want to make the rest of the truck look bad! Just mask them off and PSSSSSSSSST!
    When you paint something that gets hot use high temperature paint: it will stay on longer.
    Move the shifter to the floor!!
    No rear brakes make burnouts easier.
    Rain X makes a anti fog juice!
    Anytime you need advice: I know EVERYTHING!!

    Oh and I can relate to the ear muffs on the highway, when I’m driving my 68 c10 at highway speeds it is so loud. Mostly wind noise. That old truck still hauls A though. 327 4 barrel with turbo 400 auto. My ideas below are exactly what I did with my 68, although my body is good except for one rocker panel. My grandpa bought it in 1970 so it’s our sentimental truck. Non car people don’t get it, my wife is one. He died in 1980 when I was only 3. When I’m driving his truck 40 years later it’s like a piece of him is still here.

      Actually those 74 dollar propane heaters will fix the issue of no heat, but you will still need a window defroster.
      Also if you reach hard a window scraper/brush can be reached out the window while driving well at slow speeds!

    I've had several old 60s Chevies, a 62, 64, 65, and a 66. I only 'fixed up' the 64 with a friends' help. It started out like yours, with bad valve seals and a bed with NO wood floor left. I swapped out the fleetside for an 8' stepside and installed an un-rebuilt 327 from a 68 Impala- which promptly shredded the little 3spd so I obtained a 'rock-crusher' 4spd and that fixed it. I could pull a house off its' foundation if I had enough weight in the bed. I miss it.
