The trouble I could get into

I just think of the trouble I could get into with the wife if I had this toy.

Air Conditioning, Cruise Control, Clock, Tachometer, Power Steering, Power Windows, Power Door Locks, AM/FM, Cassette, Leather/Suede Interior Surface





With the winch I could literally drag home any rusty piece of junk, rolling or not.



It does look like it has WMs, would have to get rid of those.



Chris, it's only 50 miles from your house, in Machesney Park. Sure would look nice in a row with the '29, '52 and '56

The ad says, "Call for price", so it must be pricey.
$$$$

Do it, do it, do it, do it, do it, do it!

You'd look good behind the wheel of that yellow beast!

Just say it will make you thousands of dollars, (they like that)

Or just get it and deal with being in trouble later!

You guys are all enablers, Bobby, especially you. Maybe I'll take a loan out against the farm (I'd bet that would go over) I'd just have to tell my wife it's for hauling bales around the farm, that might work.

Keith, you could feel some kinship to this truck. If you look at the panel below the grill you can see there's a cut out, looks like a passage way for front bumper pump PTO shaft.

I would definitely have to change the color, I don't like yellow.

That's at speedway auto mall in machesney park. It's Been sitting there for at least at year, see it everytime I go to menards next door. He keeps moving it from up on the road pads to back behind the shop, I'm sure he would move some on his price since its been there so long

The BIG problem I see is the amount of money I have in my wallet won't move .

Remember if you have to ask the price you can't afford it.

Just think of the possibilities for your next Truckstock or Truckfest trip. You know you want it. At least call em and get the price. What kind of engine/drivetrain does it have?

Bob, this truck is a money maker. It will pay for itself in no time! Think of all the jobs you can do hauling cars and trucks in your area.... or at least that is what you tell the Mrs.

Chris, sorry, I keep forgetting the year of the AA.

I know I wouldn't be able to buy the flatbed but I think you should. I have live vicariously through others.

Well, somebody needs to buy it! Otherwise, all our enabling is gone to waste.
