The backburner 1980 build
I found this 1980 D50 in my buddy's neighbors front yard.Shoe polish on the front window said $800 takes it,the bed was elevated and fell in love. The numbers matched and the date in the door read 12/79....almost a 70 something minitruck! The current owner drove the truck 20 minutes to my house and then I pulled the top off and drove around the neighborhood a while. Next day I loaded my two sons up and our dog for a romp around the neighborhood and it shut off after two blocks.After a push back home I discovered that there is no fuel coming out the carb,fail. I fixed the worn out horn button in the newish Grant wheel and test fitted the pair of 1972 Benz horns I got from the pick & pull. I am saving for the Weber carb and not even going to bother with the oe carb that was just cleaned,until then I will try to be wrangleing up other parts. heres a few pics of my new addition.Attachment 3702Attachment 3703Attachment 3704Attachment 3705Attachment 3706
