Tell the world a little bit about your vehicle
This truck was originally a member of the Lincoln County, Missouri Fire Department. It was set up with a water tank in the bed to put out brush fires. I am guessing that the water in the tank may have been a salt brine mixture since the bed has a bed liner and the tail gate is a rusty mess. The rest of the truck is as clean as a whistle (of course, it's a Fire Department truck!). The truck has a C-6 Automatic and 3.54 gears, so the 460 can get some gas mileage. There also appears to have been a carburetor fire (good thing it was manned by firemen!) as there are some signs of burnt wiring and destroyed plastic components. Also, the carburetor needs to be replaced as it STILL leaks around the throttle shaft and every gasket!
