    My 1968 Fargo. Red and White auto shift off the dash. Big white steering wheel. Roof light's were awesome all chrome. Brother i drove that truck for years. 3 kids and the wife and the way we go. The truck never cost me any headaches. Just turn the key and go. Only my truck had the 383. She was a looker and a sleeper. Lol

    What a beauty. Those slants can be pretty torquey. I'm assuming it's a 225.?. Love the content as always.
