Wow, Kevin! That thing is nice! The interior is almost immaculate. Original seat fabric is great, dash and instrument panel is nice. How's the headliner?

How far did you have to go to get it? Did you drive it home or trailer it? Is that a rust hole on the driver's side inner fender? If so I wonder what caused that?

What are your plans for it?

I get it on Thursday, I plan on trailering it but if its too heavy I'll drive it. Its 75 miles west of me. Yes that's a very bad drivers inner fender, both front fenders have rust but the driver side is the worst
Its going to be my farm truck/scrap hauler

That is much better than the one I'm looking at. I guess I have to buy mine now.
Glad I could be of service Kevin.
There is something about these bigger trucks. I have zero need for one, but I can't stop thinking about the one I'm looking at. I wonder what tires will cost for this? I could get by with four for now. Oh great.....I have to buy it first.

Kevin, enjoy. I know you will have a blast with it.

Looking more, I can't believe how nice the interior is. Such a good buy.

And I think it has or had the stock optional windshield washer. I see a hose going to the under side of the hood in the engine picture. And I think I see the nozzle on the hood in the first pic.
