I was at the old Sherwin Williams store on W. Charleston just past Decatur. ( don't remember the new name) they are still there, lots of culled paint to choose from. Sorry, Miles I don't get on this forum often enough. Just towed the Pinz to Golden Valley, more room to work on finishing the paint ov...

My 72, 710M is going to be tan too, It matches everything in the desert and I found a gallon of flat at the local paint store for $5.

Hi Miles, I'm still here in Vegas, my PInz is currently down for painting, I stripped most everything body related from the truck. The city nailed me for having it parked on the yard ( Chat) so It's now in the driveway. I'll probably tow it to the Golden Valley house to finish the job then use it to...

So, what engine is it? and is that power steering?

I found the easiest way was throw a tarp over the back and an air mattress and sleeping bag on the floor in the back, a twin mattress fits perfectly. I've stayed warm and dry in snow and rain, of course when the wife goes along I drag the Coleman pop-up along.

Checker and Auto zone will loan you the tools for free, they just hold a credit card # so that you don't forget to bring them back.

I'll be giving you a call Scott, My mirror came apart after bouncing it off a tree....

I pulled the plates and took the power washer to it, did a fine job.

My first trip was from Prescott, AZ to Las Vegas, NV towing a Jeep Wrangler, absolutely no problems, just need to be careful when braking...

I used some good detergent and a power washer to clean mine out, it did a fine job.

Since the casinos don't use coin anymore, I broght home an old plastic coin can made to hold $100 worth of nickels, it fits perfectly under the plug and even stays in place while the oil is draining, you might be able to talk your bank out of one next time you are there.

I'm having the same problem, think I'll try shimming the strike plate.

Great Idea, Thanks Mike.

I'm repainting my 710M and I plan on leaving the tailgate and side panels off and using the truck as a flatbed for hauling my 600# ATV on camping trips, which should allow for better braking on the highway. of course once the ATV is unloaded I'm back to the light rear end again and need to brake car...

I have stripped my Pinz down to paint it, everything is off except doors and windshield, does anybody have an idea for mounting the seatbelt shoulder harness to make the truck street legal without the roll bar installed?
I may drive it with an open cab this spring after I paint it.
