Truck has sold and is heading to Colorado. Thanks all to your interest and comments
Selling my dream truck due to health reasons.Help me out here.I bought it a year ago from Hilltop Cruisers in Sundre Alberta Canada where Ryan took special care on keeping it an unrestored original.OEM parts were installed such as lights,mirrors,seals,front fenders etc.He went thru the truck from front to back makeing everything operational.No expenses were spared to make this truck a great running driving rig.We started with a truck with low mileage(72,000) that had been in storage for nearly 20 years.Except for the front fenders being rusty at the lights and nonstock mirrors installed this was a solid no rust truck.Ryan had OEM fenders which he painted and installed.He removed the nonstock mirrors,repainted the doors inside and out,installed new gaskets window tracks etc and reinstalled the doors.The only body part that isn't just right is the top of the cab.There was holes in it for some type of bracket.I found a brand new OEM top which I have not installed yet.Interior is very nice and has the original floor mat.One seat cover is a little torn so I bought all new covers but haven't put on yet.Had gas tank and radiator redone.Guys,This truck even has some of the original paint on the underside of the cab and frame.The box isn't brand new perfect straight but it is solid and no rust through.Looking to get $25,000 out of it which is way less than invested.We all talk about if only a guy could find an unrestored original that isn't rusted out or butchered,but that could never happen.Well,here it is.
