froze my butt off at snow auction BUT

I scored an all original, 1 owner, lady driven farm truck. 43K miles,. Thursday I took pics of it when it was 65F. Today was an artic blast, 35mph windgusts of 10 windchill. Truck is nothing fancy but is fairly clean. 350 4bbl, stabilizer, auxillary springs, AM radio, HD radiator. I bought it to resell but I might keep'er. Hard to find these with less than 50K these days. Plus I love that orange-red factory color.

Re: froze my butt off at snow auction BUT

very solid. I got it to start but couldnt give it gas without popping and backfiring. We got back from our 30mile trip, put gas in it on the trailer, went to the barn and charged up the battery. I started it up and let it run. Once the fresh gas was circulating it ran great.

Re: froze my butt off at snow auction BUT

I drove it around the block and was amazed how easy it was to turn with manual steering, tight front end + 215/75/15's make easy turning. LOL

Re: froze my butt off at snow auction BUT

Looks like a good find. I finished up the suspension on mine today and went to drive home and found it snowing and cold. Needless to say I didn't get a very good test drive of it.

Re: froze my butt off at snow auction BUT

There's a new tailgate for it. The story is the tailgate there was dented, insurance bought a new one, painted and everything. but since this was a farm truck they just put it up!!! He hasnt decided how much he wants for it yet but Im going to try to get it.

Nice score! If it were me I would keep it. Good truck the way it is and then it's a great future project down the road. Two trucks for the price of one.
