Update: I looked at the truck made an offer and the owner said he would rather hang on to it...

Update II: After a month or so Isaw the truck was still for sale so I made another offer and he accepted. I'll be bring it home this week. The truck runs great. Does need a little body work though. Does someone make lower door skins for theses trucks also one of the kickwells needs replacement or patching. I dont plan on a major restoration as I have numerous other projects. I just wanted something for bumming around town and hauling junk around...I'll post some pic asap

here is an updated pic. I put new tires on her as well as painted all the rims with a "rhino coat" style sprayable bedliner. I also removed the rubber fender flares.
