Rust free California truck inVermillion Red and always garaged. This is a great weekend cruiser that starts up on the first try every single time. I’ve been through the motor, rebuilt the transmission, brake system, and upgraded electrical system to 12-volt.Runs great and is lots of fun to drive. This is an honest, solid, high quality driver. The truck is mostly original. The original 3-speed transmission was replaced with a 4-speed before I bought it. I replaced the oak wood in the bed, added a new vinyl seat, and new wheels and tires. It has 3.92 gear ratio with a top speed of about 55-60 mph.
I bought this truck in 2012 and have mechanically gone through everything and fixed or replaced as needed (see list below). It was a solid truck when I got it, but needed a lot of things done. Since then, I have invested over $14,000 (with receipts). There are a few things still needed to completely finish this beautiful high quality driver. This is a great truck that you can jump into immediately and enjoy while you finish up a few odds and ends to kick it up a notch. I’ve had great fun cruising around town on the weekends and never had any issues.
Thegauges work, but need voltage reducers added (which I will include) and I have a replacement speedo that is as nice as the one in the truck. Original speedo won't spin. The truck was painted when I got it and was done about 10 years ago and still looks good. Paint looks great and is still nice and shiny, there are a few small spots with imperfections. The outside of the rear stake pocket on the driver side needs to be repaired (see pic). There is a dent on the inside of the passenger door panel and a few small holes (see pic). There are no cracks in the glass, but the vent windows are bubbling around the edges and could be replaced (see pic).
