He has since passed on and the kids no longer have the same passion for the truck as he had. The truck is being listed at no reserve as the old truck needs to find another home where it will feel needed and loved once again. This is a Southern pickup than runs and drives very well. all the glass is clear, no chips, cracks,. or wiper marks. The doors open and close great, the windows go down and back up as they should. The gauges work, the turbo 350 trans. shifts smooth through all the gears, the brakes are good the dual exhaust was recently replaced. The cab is solid, as are the doors fenders and roof, the rocker panels and cab corners are solid. The interior is extra clean and very presentable. The truck has like new 16' tires and rims it is a very dependable old pickup.

I appreciate your time checking out the old truck. Remember to express your concerns and ask all your question

And what's so wrong with it ? My dad and uncles were into pre war cars my generation not so much. They want to give it a good home.

Sounds like the right move. Ever heard of the saying to each their own? Joe blow who lives in an apartment complex doesnt need a squeaky old pickup sitting around. It might not have any cupholders either. That's what matters to some folks.
