Re: Green machine

Wellesley Crescent Park. I know exactly where that is. Im just behind Carlmont in SC.
Just my .02. If I were considering paying the amount of money that they are asking, I think I would need to at least see power front discs, power steering and either a 700r4 or a 5 speed manual. A little cleaner engine compartment wouldn't hurt either. The body does look very clean but add the cost of the mechanical upgrades that have been mentioned onto the original purchase price and it's not so sweet of a deal.
FWIW, I found my '63 in Oregon. Paid too much. I drove it around this area for a number of years with the drum brakes and although they worked fine, I like my disc brakes WAY better with the way that people drive around here at rush hour. Im sure you know what I mean living as close to Whipple as you do.
Your truck is out there if you are patient, stay ready (with cash lol) and keep educating yourself on them.
