It's not perfect, but a very, very solid truck that looks amazing, drives extremely well, and always turns heads.
NOTES:
The speedometer does not work. (Most likely just needs a new cable)
The exterior was repainted factory colors at one point in its life (early 90s probably?), but it is in fantastic condition and shows beautifully. The interior appears to have the original paint still.
Truck comes with two sets of keys for the ignition and door locks (keyed the same). There is no key for the tool box in the bed.
Also comes with a nice, straight chrome step bumper for the rear (not installed). I was going to put a roll pan on.
Located in Coeur d`Alene, ID. Clear Idaho title in hand and ready to go.
