Nice truck

Curious if it sells for this price. Putting a price on something doesn't mean its worth that much. I see a fancy paint job. I would be more interested in what it looked like before it was restored. What market did it come from. I think LHD drive and a 73, Europe or south of the border. I've seen what some of the Central and South American pickups look like and how they were used and repaired over the years. No padded dash but three paint seat belts and a VIN on the A pillar.:hhmm: Instead of a ton a pictures of the fancy paint job I would like to see how it got to that paint. For that kind of money I would also expect a lot detail of the little things. No support for the driver's running board. Plastic missing on the inside door handles. Looks like a few short cuts and not enough eye to detail which you would expect in a restore of a classic in this price range. Too many Vintage and vulture out there as well as private individuals who buy a old cruiser do a quick fix and fancy paint jobs and think it's now worth it weight in gold.


This was at least it's second listing on Ebay doing reseach. Both with no bids. Also zero feedback on the seller doesn't help either.

There was a later model 45 this color that showed up at SNT a couple of years ago that, IIRC, belonged to a hispanic genteman from So Cal. If it is the same truck, I think he said he brought it up from S.A. a number of years back.
