    I have been trying to buy this truck for over two years and 2 weeks ago the guy finally priced it. I would ask him about the truck when I would see him which is maybe twice a year and he would say I do not want to sale it and I would let it go at that not wanting to be a pain in his side, so I would just say when you decide to let me know. Another guy ask him about the truck 2 weeks ago and he told him he had to ask me if I was still interested before he sold it. First pic is where it had been setting for awhile, he had owned the truck for over 10 years. Typical rust at the bottom of the doors and fenders cab corners and step wells are in good shape pass side floor has small hole but over all pretty solid truck to some I have seen.

  8. its totally ok to wash as long as you use a toothbrush and make sure to put all the dust in a little jar first.
