This is a great hobby & these old trucks are fun, but if you don,t know anything about working on it & don,t want or think you can learn , or sleep with someone who can, I,d stay away from it. They all need work. If you have to find & pay a shop to work on it & do it right it could turn into a money pit. You might be better off finding one locally & looking it over real good & get someone knowledgable to look at it.
