Please take time to read my listing and look at all of the photos of this time capsule. I am selling off a couple of my toys to make room forsomething different. I purchased it from an older gentleman like myself that has had it stored for many years. He had double knee replacements and could no longer drive it. Although his son would drive itoccasionally to keep it in good operatingcondition. The brakesall work great and will stop you on a dime. The gas tank has been flushed and so has the big radiator.This western truck was painted in the early 1970s and at that time the original engine was swapped for an early model Buick Nailhead 224 and the original 3- speed on the floor was adapted to it, that make this truck a much morepleasure to drive. That was very common back in the day with the Nailhead being therodder'schoice. The truck runs, shifts, and drives unbeleavably well with lots of torque and power. It has also been converted to a 12 volt system and everything works except the original temperature gauge although it has an after market guage that works great. BIG RADIATOR with electricfans keep it cool on thehottest days unlike the old flathead that you have to Even the speedometer works great and appears to be veryaccurate. It shows 37,000 miles but true miles unknown is the way I am selling it because it is as old as I am so who knows! The paint and body are very nice to be 45 years old but not perfect as you would expect. (Shines great) Although as you would expect for that old it will have a little nick and scratch here and there but nothing drastic. The stainless is very nice as well as the glass is. No smoked edges on the glass, no cracks and no bad scratches. The body is super nice and 95% rust free, there is a place on each fender on each side where the running boards meet the bottom of the fender that will require some attention at some point but still draws a crowd and gets lots ofattention atcruise inns!!There are a few bubbles there on the bottom of the fenders but no rust through anywhere. (Easy fix) The under carriage of this truck is dry as a bone as you can see in the pictures and has never had any repair work but has a couple very small spots on one of the floor bracesunder the bed (DIME SIZE) It is probably one of the best original I have seen. Overall this truck would be hard if notimpossibleto duplicate at my reserve and their are not many left out there like this one!! Theirs also just recently four new tires installed with less than 400 miles on them. This truck is a blast to drive and everyone loves it, you can fly in and drive this truck across country as you so desire, it is that good. Please check my feedback, I do not own junk. Transporting is buyers responsibility although I do have connections with a couple of reasonable and reliable transporters and will assist in loading.
I normally list them on ebay when I am ready to sell although most of the time they don't make it to the end of auction so if you are very interested feel free to make me a reasonable offer and I may end the auction early . (Low ballers will be ignored) If you have any question's please ask before bidding and if your feedback is less then 10 or you have resent retractions please contact me before bidding or your bid will be canceled.
Sorry I have to state it like that but it is expensive and inconvenient for the real buyers. I require a two thousand dollar none refundable deposit through pay pal at end of auction and the balance in 5 days bank wire transfer or cash in person only. Do to the age this truck is selling as is andtransporting is buyersresponsibility although I do know a couple ofreasonable andresponsible transporters and willassist inloading.
