I’m the 3rd owner of this 53 year old truck that runs and drives great. I bought it in 1983. It needs bed wood. floor pans and other lower sheet metal (see photos) and a paint job. or just drive it like I have. Lots of small parts and manuals go with it. The truck has been garaged for the past 10 years and averaged about 600 miles per year in that time. Good title. Buyer is responsible for vehicle pick up or hauling. Questions are always welcome. Bidders please note that my reserve price is lower than the Buy It Now price. Thanks for looking.
