Well, here we go again? I have a chance to buy this truck. I haven't pinned him down to a firm price yet but he mentioned somewhere between 3-4 thousand. It is as rust free as you will ever find in Iowa. It's an original six cyl. four speed farm truck. It had a couple of dents in the box sides where the old guy scraped the garage door frame and when they fixed it they couldn't get the paint to match so they painted the whole exterior. I saw the truck before it was repaired and painted so I know there is nothing covered up. If he will take $3000 for it I may have to buy it....

you should not leave your car door open like that some crazy truck driver might jump in it and take off

chipflyer · 11-06-2008, 11:30 PM

Very nice Leon, good looking old truck! Might as well add another to the stable.

That truck could be a sister truck to the one my father-in-law had. It sold for $600 at an the estate auction. But it was a beater. Leon...its only money. Give it to your "boss" and say Merry Christmas!

**fine69** · 11-07-2008, 03:48 AM

I love that color on a truck.

Dang. It would be a steal if you could buy it for 3 K.

68C15 · 11-07-2008, 06:52 AM

if only it was a GMC.

I could store it for you.

<I have a spare title and VIN plate. hehehe>
