See below for complete list of what was done during the restoration. Besides that this truck already looked great, with the interior in great shape having been completely redone a few years back, The exterior of the truck is also in very good shape. The "patina" is not rust—it is actually a multi color paint process of black, turquoise, and bronze rubbed to give the truck that "Rat Rod Look" without the corrosion and rust. The bed of the truck is protected by a paint in bed liner. The 223 cu in straight six engine starts easily and runs perfect. This truck can be a daily driver or weekend cruiser.

I am not a professional reseller or car dealer, just a guy who likes old cars and trucks. I'm in the unfortunate situation of having a get rid of most of my small car collection because I have more cars than space, time, or money to deal with them anymore. It pains me to get rid of this wonderful truck as it has been completely gone thru and needs nothing. I'm setting a reserve that is considerably lower than what I have invested into the truck. Somebody will be getting a great deal.

This truck is a 58 years old car so it is by no means perfect, but it has been gone through completely and needs nothing. There are minor imperfections which are all very fixable if someone wants to fully restore this truck but in my opinion its in exceptional shape and wasn't meant to be a trailer queen.
