Re: check this out new toy a un molested 72

Goodness man, you stole that thing! That is a beautiful buy for $1k. Congrats!

Looks a lot like mine, same color, interior, saddle blanket cover, refurb dash bezel, cracked steering wheel, etc..But mine is a SWB w/o side molding.

Have fun with it....or sell it and make some money. Once again, a great buy.

Re: check this out new toy a un molested 72

Man,that's an excellent driver! That's a sharp looking truck. It should get reasonable mileage,too. The only thing I'd do is change the steering wheel to be right side up.

I'll never get how can someone "hate" a longbed. Maybe it's just a poor choice of words

Nice Nice. I'd leave it as is, well except flip the steering wheel as mentioned by special-k and maybe clean up the engine compartment. Happy driving.

Re: check this out new toy a un molested 72

Great buy! As for the steering wheel, why does everybody say it needs to be flipped? Mine gets that way when I turn the wheels!
