The guy was asking $300, but I knew where there was a mid 70s pickup with a rebuilt trans for the same price. The pickup has been sitting a number of years, so I wasn't too sure how good the transmission was. So if he did not come down in price on the sub, I would have bought the pickup instead.

Its a 1978 according to the registration papers.

No engine or trans.

It had a CB in it. The guy I bought it from wanted it back. The antenna is not on the truck anymore.

It has bucket seats out of something. They are not stock buckets. I think at least one of them is electric. They would need to be recovered.

I can't remember if it has the rear AC. I'll take a look at it and see.

EVERYTHING on this truck is painted white. Even the (used to be) chrome bumpers. Any idea if I can get the paint off of the grille? Easy Off oven cleaner?

Obviously I wasn't paying too much attention to the rest of the truck when I bought it. I just wanted the running gear.

Looks like I got lucky yesterday. LOL
