Here it is: You probably won't like the price because it is almost completely re-finished. The Red Rocket is my pride and joy but I lost my job at Lucent and don't have the money to finish her~!
This list brings my truck up to 19.5K and then some.:You can have it for $14,220.00 The pix on the board are almost 1year old so take notice this thing looks even better and still needs lots of TLC to make her what I wanted her to be. Black Beauty~! The factory color 500 Black with upper and lower moldings(factory), chrome window trim front and back (factory), stainless steel door trim (factory)....... You won't find a better 4wd anywhere in my opinion!and it has only been in the mud one time since I have owned it:
After 1.5 yrs I finally drove my truck in the mud~!
Drove it in the Mud for the first time ever last weekend. Brand new Wild Country 265X60X16s Mudders. Freaked everyone out. Blew by trucks and jeeps with 4" lifts stuck in the mud just laughin our @sses off. My buddy with me almost threw up he was laughin' so hard when I did a donut around the whole bunch of newer trucks some stuck others trying to get them out~! Can't wait to never do that again. It took hours to clean it up again! The price we pay for a little fun

Many pix located at my website the page: http://brewski.freehomepage.com/photo.html they will take a while but they show the truck when I first got her, with the old wheel covers. The new ones are stainless steel and are factory '71. Take a look if nothing else I think you will be impressed. There are not any recent pix of her there but I will take some of the new motor with all the pretty options, undercarrage, or anything else you may want. I am sure it will be a great truck on the beach I know the girls would go crazy~!
