No doubt. Looks like a a Krylon job.

$5K. I just bought this and no zero about it, but I'll have it in my possession next Monday or Tuesday. Vehicle will be in Amarillo, Texas. My brother in law lives in Wellington, Texas, and he has a friend who was having to clean out his dad's house. He called me and asked me if I wanted it...

Yeah that was the downside with Ferraris. Everyone assumes you are trying to act rich, important, flashy. It just felt yucky. A shame, because I really enjoyed those cars. My dad had a 1963 250GTE V12. It was way more understated, except for the sound of the V12.

Yeah, you know that's why I finally quit with the Ferraris. I really loved the history and the machines, but not all the attention. Felt weird.

So did it used to be the off white color, matching the dash?

Cool! where are you seeing the original color?

Is that not a bunch of rust in the fender well?

Here are more pics.

Yeah could be. But I know since at least 1983 it has been in the Texas panhandle, a very dry climate. EDIT: Just got more photos. Looks rusty to me, but won't know much more until I actually see it.

I won't have it until around next Friday, so right now, I have very little info. I bought it on a whim. My brother in law called me and said his friend was cleaning out his dad's house and needed to get rid of everything. I first told him "Yeah I'm not interested, those are expensive." And...

Surely the truck wouldn't be worth $20K. ??

Guys, thank you so much for all of the comments. I truly appreciate it. Here is where I am at I think. I don't have a personal passion for old Toyota Cruisers, and I"m not particularly handy. My interest has been older Ferraris - even on those I've done some DIY but not a lot - So I am...

One thing I have quicly noticed is, BLACK isn't a color option for this car when new. So...if the paint is good, do I hold my nose and live with it, or should a proper color be a part of the resto project? Thoughts?
