My husband was the one to talk to the guy we got the truck from. Here's what I understand about what happened. The guys dad passed away and the sister took the truck, probably thinking $$$$. The will said the guy was to get it. He had to take his sister to court to get the truck from her. When he got the truck, she wouldn't give him the missing running board. I think she vandalized the truck. 🫣😯🫤
Hubby told me it took the guy over an hour to unburry the truck in the storage unit.
My husband is a mechanic. He only works on stuff here. My 38 year old son also does mechanic work. We also have a neighbor that knows a bit about old vehicles. He showed us where the brake fluid goes and a few other things. I think we need to get a manual for the truck.
The guys discovered that the master cylinder was bad. Got that. Need to install it soon.
I did find LMC and have ordered glass, seals and handles. I saw some bad reviews online about LMC, but I'm giving them a chance.
The floors, in the front corners are holy! They're going to have to wait a bit.
The bed of the truck has a metal plate bolted over the wood. Husband looked under the bed and said all the wood is there and doesn't look bad.
