Coming Back

After a long hiatus in Germany I'm finally coming back. I'll be in the sunshine state in about a month and truckless. I have found a possible prospect for my new daily driver and wanted your opinions on it.

Re: Coming Back

Anyone have any idea what tranny is in it based off the gear shifter? I know it's not the standard 4 on the floor that came stock on these trucks.

Re: Coming Back

I would love to set that on a brand new Chevy truck frame and make that my next service truck for work. Come on lottery numbers.

I'm going to take a guess and say it was a three on the tree converted to a floor shift.

Good looking truck. I think it is one heck of a deal for that price.

Re: Coming Back

The site won't let me edit my first post so I'll put this here. I just found something to compete for my affection and dollars once I get home. Which do y'all think would be the best? There's a poll at the top.

Re: Coming Back

Tough choice.
Orange one for work and hiding beer kegs,
White one for a chick magnet.
