Can you give a backstory on the truck?

Pics of the underside and engine compartment?

Does it have a top and/or doors?

The more pics the better. Nice looking truck.

Appears to be an imported model. Top and doors included? Power steering?

Nice looking. Middle Eastern, probably ex-Saudi, possibly UAE, 4.11s, no emissions equipment.

Need more information and photos. See a radio, but missing ash tray, jump seats. Do you have a tailgate or ambo "C" softtop doors, what about softtop bows; or--is/was this a hardtop model, and do you have ambo and side hard doors, sides, and roof included? Any options like power steering, A/C? Is passenger seat bottom torn?

Truck was brought over by Spector from Saudi Arabia where it was the equivalent of a police vehicle. Owner prior to me was between California and Texas, but kept in Texas due to no emissions. He left Texas and sold to be prior to departing - approximately 12 years ago.

I sold hard top, ambo doors and side hard doors 7 years ago. I have added disc brakes to front, roll bar and seat belts (foreign models are often without due to different saftey requirements), Old Man Emu suspension and OEM wheels. No AC or tailgate (added wood rail for plate land light after I took top off. Does have bimini top. Has original PTO wench (removed gear box). No power steering.

Spoke with owner today, nice guy. The truck has pretty advanced rust in the rear bed, looks like it is beginning to perforate. The front floors look solid but are coated . Judging by the rear bed I would expect to find rust in the front of the hood , bottom of the bib and in the rear sill. Overall looks like a good resto candidate and the winch will add value to some. Definitely need an pre purchase inspection if anyone is interested.
