Kinda like a boomerang

Looks like I'm getting my fridge panel back. I traded it to a young man in my community for lawn mowing services, most of which never happened. He lost interest in the truck and his landlord wants it out, so he told my employee to tell me to come get it if I want it. 223, 4 speed, runs nice, but has no driveshaft as the owner before me converted to the 4 speed and never finished. I may hillbilly something together just so I can move it around on my property. No real plans for this truck, just couldn't pass it up. No brakes either.....

Just spent 1/2 hour looking for pictures of the fridge panel. They aren't labeled as such, yet I stumbled upon them about 3 days ago. Of course I didn't write it down, so now can't find them. It's not too bad. I remember the step is pretty much gone on the pass side. Back doors look good, original tail lights. Truck is stock and unmolested, with exception of added 4 speed trans. The kid called yesterday and asked when I was gonna pick it up. Maybe today, but probably tomorrow after work. The truck is a 'dead roller'. That's how I describe a vehicle that rolls, but has no way to stop it. No brakes or parking brake, no driveshaft to hold it back in gear. Just a 3500 lb roller skate on very unlevel ground. I'll get new pictures.
