Need advice on whether to buy or not...
This is for sale about 2 blocks from my house. It is a 71 Cheyenne custom sport truck. Original owner, CA truck. The good is it is probably the most rust free truck I have seen. NO rust in the rockers, doors, cab corners, supports, even under the battery is 100% solid. Original paint and body panels are straight except for a dent in the passenger rear panel. grill has the obligatory dent in the driver side front top part by the fender. otherwise all deluxe chrome is intact.
Original engine, trans, AC Car with all pieces intact but belt is off. Nothing special on the spid, no posi 12 bolt, heavy rear spring, power steering and brakes, etc. Seat, dash, steering wheel, carpet is toast.
I have 2 weeks of vacation saved up. Should I pick this up and deliver it back east to you poor rust belt folks? Is it worth the trouble? It's $1250 by the way.
thanks for your opinions.
