tell me about it..  i don't own a truck, but i was looking at a '70 chevrolet 
3/4 ton pickup with a 402 big block in it..  the owner told me that it got 
10city/12highway mileage..  130k miles, headers, and THREE gas tanks..  kinda 
a towing truck..  has a granny low 4 speed also..  total gallons it can hold 
is upwards of 70 i believe..  some dick hit it tho on the right hand door and 
on the bed..  and it didn't have power steering..  but if could go back a 
year i would have plunked the $1500 (i could shoot myself in the foot now) 
for it
