Love that truck!

The cons:

Cracked dash pad
Cruise control cable is disconnected
Was originally a red with white two tone truck, was repainted metallic blue pretty poorly. The roof top is still patina’d
Door windows work but could use new felt to remove wind noise.

This is a fly in and drive home vehicle.

How many spark plugs? How big are the cylinders? How many wheels drive? How much is the truck?

Straight looking truck.

 

[bricycle]

fuel capacity? Engine size? adoption fees? miles?

Here is an as-found picture before the truck was bought and pulled home in August. I repaired everything right without shortcuts because I intended on having my teamager drive the truck.

Picture of floor board when carpet was removed for cleaning (TX is great for rust free vehicles)

Bed has a spray in type bedline that is flaking and shows the original truck color....good news is ; no holes
