I, along with many others here would probably stop and ask about it if we saw it too. How many people have posted about a car or truck rotting away in a field or barn because the owner won't sell.... but what about the "barn finds" that DO happen? Most wouldn't have ever been bought if someone didn't ask. Yeah yeah, you're truck is a driver with plates, but it's along the same lines (where it's parked and where you work.) Heck, my 67 was my uncle's truck. I bugged the hell out of him to sell it to me. It worked too

It sucks you get hassled, but be happy people are interested in it Take it as a compliment
u think parking it in the bac of a car dealership is bad, i saw one that was out front of a dealer parked beside cars that were 4 sale. i think it was a 69 camper. anyway my dad and i looked at it, seemed to be in good shape, no plates either, so we go in to see how much they wanted 4 it. the sales guy goes "its not for sale but theres a price 4 everything" turns out the owner of the dealership owned it since it was brand new.
