Thought I'd share pics of my father's old rig.

Well, my father passed away not too long after these pics (1985) but from stories from the family, he sold the truck to a local guy back about the same time the pics were taken.
The Fairlane ended up getting into a fender bender about the same time and he fixed the body work and primed the entire right side for paint. He parked it in my grandfathers garage until he got around to painting it.... sadly that never happened. My grandfather pulled it out about 6-7 years ago (interior/top still in MINT condition) and examined it. The frame ended up having about a dollar bill sized rust hole in it so he got rid of it. He's rather vague about WHERE it went so I think he scrapped it. Needless to say, I was rather pissed since it was supposed to be mine.
